The Sensing and Deployment Module is looking for a resistance for each of the explosive components. Most cars are somewhere between 2 and 3 ohms at each airbag. The two wires to bag need to have a resistor wired into the circuit. There are airbag simulators on eBay, but a cheap resistor will...

It's possible to get a wrench on the rear bushing's clamshell, but it quite a reach up there. I had to stop, since mine were rusted solid. It's tight up there for sure. I thought I was going to be able to do the job without dropping the subframe, but I was working on a lift.

I had a piece of foil from an antifreeze jug stuck in my aux coolant pump suction. The only downside was no cabin heat at idle and low cruise. There was a little heat at expressway speeds, but way less than with the pump working properly. It's for cabin heat!

Sorry to read this. RIP

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Pretty easy to find him on facebook. It appears he posted on the 25th, so I hope that's a sign he's on the road to recovery.

I tried to sell my clean 220,000 mile Ultimate LS8 for $600 with a blown transmission. After no takers after a week, I parted it out. I sold the hood, front cover and HID's for $400, $200 for the seats and console, $30 for the sunvisors, $100 carpet, $200 for the chrome 17" wheels and tires...

I tried to change them on my '03 years ago. There's a post with a welded stud on the lower clam. The nut is on the top. I was able to get a tool on it, but it was way up there. I live in the midwest, and the nut wouldn't budge due to rust. I stopped before I had to drop the rear cradle.

My now scraped '03 LS8 had this exact issue twice (slamming 2-3 and shuddering 3-4 upshift) . Both times it was the PCM damaged by COP misfires. The first time a local trans shop said it's not the trans take it to Ford. Ford said the computer is OK we need to pull the pan, so I took it to a...

Sorry to see that.

This sounds like a vacuum leak to me. My '03 LS8 was doing the same thing before I parted it out. Fine in the summer with a cold surging idle once the temperature dropped into the lower 50's. Even when cold outside the idle was fine once the car warmed up. Fuel trims were fine in warm weather...

Can you start a nut on it? Thread the nut all the way down so the stud is sticking through the nut then peen the end of the stud. The nut will jam on the peen, and you will be able to turn it out.

mig weld a nut to it and turn it out. You might have to do it a couple of times, but it almost always works.

I did the same with mine but used safety wire wrapped 720 degrees around the hose. Stepless ear clamps are a great way to fasten hoses, but I'm sure most of us can't find them locally.

My '03 had a pretty bad creaking noise. It wound up being the lower ball joints. Since they were not greaseable, I poked a tiny hole in the boot and sprayed a little PB Blaster and then some white lithium grease. It was quiet until the ball joints were changed with Moog. After 3-4 years the Moog...

All gone. Thanks

I never did. It was shifting hard into gear from park, and shifts into 3rd and 4th were hard. I believe a hard downshift into 3rd from 5th is what broke the trans. The car won't move in drive, and reverse doesn't work at all. It will move forward without third gear if I use the manual gate side...

I'm on my phone and it's a pain to cut and paste. I'm parting out my '03 and I'd sell you them for $80 shipped each. But, I've had this problem on previous fords and could usually get them working again after a liberal spraying with screw loose.

I guess that's why used latches are $100 on eBay.

I like sport sedans, and can never see my self or wife in a land yacht, but the Town Car is probably a better more reliable car. Ford's Panther Chassied cars seemed to run good for ever. Just an occasional puff of smoke at start-up and if they idle for a long time (valve seals). And, the darn...
