    Heater core replacement

    Yes the 84 was exactly the same but had throttle body injection which did not require removal to cut firewall. Anyone who removes dash to replace heater core rather than cutting firewall is insane. 3 hours to cut firewall & replace heater core OR 8-10 to remove dash. I like how one guy said he...

    Heater core replacement

    Heater core through firewall Nice pics. I did the same thing on my 84 (easier, no FI). Sure beats tearing out the dash.:D

    Broken Exhaust Stud ideas

    Remove if possible Best to remove manifold if not too difficult and/or drill it out. Heating may harden the steel and make the stud even more difficult to drill out. We found this out heating broken exhaust studs on a Freightliner Cat engine. Heating hardens steel ! Good luck.

    What did you do to your Mark VIII today?

    I put 96 TBird V8 Monroe Matics rear shocks on mine this week. Use the old bracket by removing the factory rubber in the mount. I used the supplied rubber and washer on the bottom and the original factory washer (inverted) on the top with no rubber. If you look at the factory setup it's not much...

    94 Fuel Pump and Misfire

    Put gas in my 94 a couple months ago at Sunoco and car wouldn't restart. CAA towing hit gas tank with something while I turned key and it fired right up. I changed the fuel pump with a Walbro 190. Easy swap. Cut a hole under the back seat next to rubber grommet using aircraft snips. I had to cut...

    Weird Wipers

    You are right the ground is by a wire to one of the bolts and affects the parking of the wipers. The intermittent is through a module. http://www.flickr.com/photos/27894781@N06/3140362720/

    Tach goes backwards

    Mine had the same problem. Its wasn't what most threads say "number plate slips down". I replaced the tach in my existing cluster from a tach off eBay I go t for $10.00 plus shipping and now it works fine. Good luck. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Don't crush 'em restore 'em

    Weird Wipers

    The wiper motor must be properly grounded for all functions to work. I had a problem getting the wipers to 'park' in the position flush with the hood. Remove the wiper motor screws (I think there are 3) and clean the grounding points where the wiper motor bolts to the firewall with emery cloth...

    Oil Change?

    Oil filter removal isn't difficult. You want difficult? Remove the steering rack without destroying the fittings on the rack or change the EGR tube or how about removing the driveshaft or fuel pump or drivers side valve cover? We won't even talk about the heater core. Changing the oil filter...

    Thinking Of Selling The Mark 7's

    Buy a Ford shop manual from eBay. They'll save you a lot of $$$ usually pay for themselves the first repair. Forget Chiltons or others get the Ford one.

    It never ends

    Mark VIII is a money pit. Within six months less than 2000 miles of driving I've replaced: front struts, headlights, front pads (new pads from previous owner were making strange scraping sound), alternator, tires. Chrome on rims is peeling off on a couple, there is a strange squeak in the body...

    Trans problems

    Started in the rain I thought maybe some transmission control connectors or ??? got wet in the rain and affected trans shifting?? Trans still working fine...and sometimes I run it hard. Who knows maybe it'll blow up next trip.:eek: I'm going to change oil + 1-2 accumulator later if it survives. RT

    Trans problems

    I've had problems with my 94 Mk VIII trans too. Would slip in first. Fluid was low I topped it up now its ok. Dipstick tube o-ring needs replacing. I drove the car in the rain the other day and had problems which seem like TV cable problems on Mk VII. RPM's increase on top gear for no reason and...

    Rattle in dash on passenger side

    My 94 Mark VIII has a rattle in the dash on the passenger side that has me stumpped. I've siliconed several areas which appeared to be the problem but the gremlin persists. :eek: The rattle occurs as soon as the car starts moving but I'm unable to duplicate the sound when the car is parked. It...

    1984 Mark VII Starting Problem

    Runs cold but not hot? Mine would stall at stop lights till I unplugged the EGR electrical connector. I'd check 1) spark 2) fuel pumps - CFI (two injectors in the throttle body) has two fuel pumps one in the tank and one inline on the frame, fuel filter. Sounds more like a fuel issue to me...
