    New Problem.

    Found the problem. My fuel pump went out. So, now I've got to replace that. Whew. At least it wasn't catastrophic. (The dealer wants $1100 to replace it. I think it would be easier to do it myself.) So, can anyone tell me if the fuel pump is located generally where most are, on top of...

    New Problem.

    My first car was a 1992 Ford Taurus. Imagine that. First thing that ever went wrong with it? You guessed it. Transmission. Big shock, huh? Damn thing sat for three years.

    New Problem.

    I tried all the afore mentioned things, and nothing worked. I did notice, however that there is oil coming from somewhere when I try to start the car. I'm really hoping something bad didn't happen, but knowing my luck, it probably did. It's not a lot of oil, but enough to make a spot on the...

    New Problem.

    Okay, yesterday I was driving home from the gas station, and the car was running great. No problems, nothing. Aside from the annoying "Low Engine Coolant" message coming on, but I always check the coolant, and it's always full. That I don't understand. Now, I went out to go to the movie...

    Junkyard Finds

    I don't have a Mark VII, sadly. I just thought it would be nice to throw in some oldies. For some reason, I have a fascination with seeing cars I have in junkyards. Reminds me how happy I should be that MY car isn't there. I even found my 1996 Ford Thunderbird that I used to own in the...

    Junkyard Finds

    Me and a buddy went around to a few local junkyards this morning, and these are some cars that we found. The black one was obviously useless, since most anything that was useable was already stripped away. I got a pic of the beige one because it seemed to be in good shape, plus it was an LSC...

    Question about Air Ride

    Good idea. I think I'll just do it the easy way and get a new compressor. It'll last until Spring and then I can get the coil conversion kit and just to that.

    Question about Air Ride

    Can anyone tell me if there is a air release switch or valve or whatever on a 1994 Mark VIII that will let out air from the rear bags? Or a way I get let air out of the system to lower the car?

    Pics of my new Mark VIII (Finally.)

    The car is going to get repainted as soon as possible. As for the 4x4 option, there's something preventing the air from being vented properly. I've been told that the vent solenoid may be stuck closed. I'm going to have it looked at tomorrow or Monday. The control arm bushings on the...

    New here Just bought my first Lincoln Mark VIII

    Back and forth meaning front to back, and vice versa. Instead of second-guessing and possibly making a huge mistake, I've got a guy I know nearby that's amazing with suspension work on Fords, Lincolns, and Mercurys. I'll take it to him and get his opinion. I had thought he was out of town...

    New here Just bought my first Lincoln Mark VIII

    Well, good news. The car didn't sink to the ground. So it seems that everything is in working order on the air ride system. I did find out however, that the bushings on the passenger front suspension need to be replaced. There is a LOT of play, and I can push the wheel back and forth with my...

    Thanks for the advice. I turned on the switch in the trunk, and am going to let it sit overnight. I'll also look up the Spider Valve for American Air Suspension. Thanks for the advice. I'll post again in the morning to let you all know about the results.

    New here Just bought my first Lincoln Mark VIII

    It doesn't. The compressor switch is off in the trunk. Should I turn it on? I had an old 1994 Crown Vic with air ride in the back, and I know when I jacked it up and set it back down the bags emptied. I turned the compressor back on to fill them up. Sorry for being retarted about these...

    New here Just bought my first Lincoln Mark VIII

    Yup, it's got brand new tires, with receipt. This guy took remarkably good care of this car. I will post pictures as soon as I can get hold of a camera. But if someone could help me with something, since this is my first Mark VIII: How do I let air out of the air ride system? It's too...

    New here Just bought my first Lincoln Mark VIII

    And I love it. It's a wonderful car. But one thing that gets me. Did I get a good deal? Here's what I purchased this morning: 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII. It's got 191,000 miles on it, but the previous owner who purchased it new from a dealer in Florida meticulously maintained it with...
