    For Sale 1987 MkVII LSC in central Florida

    We've had this baby since new. 148K miles but leaks and burns none, strong reliable untouched 5.0 HO powertrain. Body mostly good but the strip between rear window and trunk lid has rusted through. Sheet metal is otherwise great. Interior leather is pretty good, no tears, could use some blue...

    Strutmasters Air -> Spring conversion

    I did this conversion recently and there's some things to beware. One, if you buy from eBay sellers, Strutmasters will not talk to you. They demand a direct invoice number on their tech support line. The instructions that come from the eBay seller we bought from, are a bad joke - wrong...

    getting rid of the entire air ride setup completely...

    Swapping air bags is bone simple, springs are much more work (and those spring/shock combo deals, a physical risk). The perches as they are, look like they'd need some serious modification to switch over to coil springs. All my leak problems were with the little O-rings; the...

    Climate Control weirdness

    Ours has done this intermittently ever since a third- party stereo install. I am suspicious about perhaps a messed up ground, or cobbled power wiring. But haven't gotten around to it....

    Lincoln Mark VII ABS pump

    I would recommend first finding the ABS pressure pump relay and give it a whack if pump stays running key-off. If it releases & quits, replace the relay. We've had that go bad before on ours. If it lets the pump run flat-out you will have an overpressure that makes it harder for seals to...

    Seat controls

    I have been having intermittent problems ever since the car got semi-flooded (up into the carpet at least). The motors underneath are the problem, there; need a bit of "goosing" to get them off the dime. The lumbar pump is well and truly f*cked since I didn't begin working it until much...

    ABD Delete?

    <posted in MkVII section, but maybe better here?> ABS controller has begun to leak. Local car repair shop I took it to, says the '87s (and similar) had a lot of problems, design was changed later, and the replacement would run to $2400 all told. So I thinks to meself, a plain old power...

    ABS controller has begun to leak. Local car repair shop I took it to, says the '87s (and similar) had a lot of problems, design was changed later, and the replacement would run to $2400 all told. So I thinks to meself, a plain old power booster and proportioning valve, maybe a couple of...
