Wish I was a newbie, but just an oldbie with memory issues who would like some help finding the posts on 2 1tems: "How to" pull the DS valve cover... and, step by step engine pull. I finally have the $$ to get my '95 back on the road but the mechanix are Newbies to Mark 8's and before i pay them...

Gee, i thought this was an option feature!

Uncle Sherm, If you haven't located one let me know. I have one that came in my '98LSC. I'll have to dig around to find it, so let me know and I'll dig! DosMarkos

I would say yes with a couple of heads up. The 96 windshield wipers do not always want to park properly after use and once every few months the fuel pump decides to take a break, then resumes function. I have new WW motor and fuel pump. That's all for the 96. The 98 needs the oil filter adapter...

Due to health issues I have made the decision to sell off 2 of my 4 Viii's. Sound cars for a serious person looking to get into a couple of Marks without having to spend a lot to get to the point of having a nice car, as most cars in this $ range require. Cars are ouside of Austin/San Antonio...

Saw the prices when I went searching...$8-10K....arrrghh. Just such a pisser trying to even find someone willing AND able to rework a Mark engine, and just as expensive. Some times I think about selling all my 8's and buying an older 5.0 Mustang ...but then I'd be driving a car that's all over...

Just watched a video of a mark with a 5.0 Coyote engine swap here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxA06dMZqds No info given. Any one here done this swap. Would be great to know cost, necessary mods, trans. used etc. looks like there was a quick shot of a module on passenger side, maybe a stand...

Thanks for all the responses. The replacement pump came yestrday. I went to try to start the car again(it has not started since my original post on 2/2, i have tried to start it a 2x a day since)to move it, and walla it started right up, good pressure at the fuel rail. Question- when a fuel...

The fuel pump on my '96 Mark just failed....won't start and just dribbling fuel at the rail schrader. Only 67K and probably original pump, I'm thinking the 20 years has something to do with the failure?....anyway trying to decided to DIY or ave it done. Pics of the process would be very...

Thanks to Lownslow for the link which turned me on to googing searches and to Callen for the great pics.

I need to replace the outside passenger side mirror on my '98 Mark. Have tried wording search to turn up help on how to r&r the door trim panel with no luck....so I am frustrated and have run out of word combinations..need help! Can anybody guide me to any posts, with pics would be great, on how...

Will Do...and thanks for the input.

Put in a fully charged battery.....it cranked for 30-40 secs. and then fired up. I wonder if the battery going to full discharge caused a loss of computer parameters and that caused the failure to start after recharging of the dead battery, like maybe not enough juice to get default settings...

I'll have time to try to start it again today. The first try, I charged the battery (not disconnected) and it turned over for a couple of minutes before battery started going down without giving a hint of firing up. Maybe a less than full charge is the culprit. Thanks Bangster

Thanks unity, Did not disconnect it. Will try that way.

Made the mistake last week of not fully turning ignition switch off and went out to start the car ( '96 base) ystrday, battery dead....recharged it and tried to start 'er up. Wouldn't catch a fire. Question: are there potential consequences to leaving the key in on position besides draining the...

Sorry I am asking for help with what I can't find on my worded search. Question is: How involved, or possible is it to swap a Gen1 front clip onto a Gen2 chassis? Thanks for the guidance. Dos

Paula stated "Not sure where to start" in bringing her Mark basically, up to speed. Some times the humans involved in the process need to be brought up to speed as well. Welcoming in new members with a respectfull tutoring is a service old timers can do that might help encourage newb's to...

So...what gearing would you all recommend, assuming she has a base? I have both base and LSC cars and the only real difference I notice in performance is the fuel mileage! My '96 & '95 bases are quicker than my '98 LSC, and they get 2-3 more mpg than the LSC, all are in good stock tune. What...

Excuse my ignorance on this one, I need educated. This is the first post I have seen on this subject and it leads me to 1 dumb question: where did the plug go? where it went....how could it have not done any damage...or did it come out with the COP? Thanks
