I would crawl under the rear of the car and put my sniffer everywhere and see if i could locate exactly where that gas smell is coming from. If the previous owner said they replaced the fuel pump you may want to lower the tank so you can double check that everythings still connected like its...
Heres a picture of the Aero engine when i had it tore down and the little bit of room i had to work in lol. The miss i was chasing turned out to be a dead injector. The egr valve nearly killed this little engine. From the throttlebody plate to the valves it had almost a 1/4 inch of gummy carbon...
Hey good to hear from you. Man i tore that Aerostar motor down to the pushrods and redone some things. I deleted the egr since thats what caused alot of the problems. I did not realize what a engine killer the egr valve is. I got it back together and it runs like a brand new engine. I have done...
Ok with the codes you posted if you replaced the throttlebody with a good working unit and double checked all connections and coils are good then it sounds like you're pedal assembly maybe malfunctioning. Thats where i would go next.
@#Jeff504lsv8 i had ETC Failsafe problems with my throttlebody. I took that silver electric motor cover off thats attached to it and found those magnets thats glued to the inside of the cover were coming unglued and were sliding down and hitting that electric motor causing my 06 LS problems...
@Layla11242 thats a clean LS. I get it that you want to sell it cause the issue is still on going and has to be aggravating. I just wanted to ask did the trans rebuild shop add brass sleeves to the trans case where servo bore actuators slide in and out? Have you ever had the old servo bores...
Yes a unhooked O2 sensor can cause this since its not relaying back correct info for the computer to make proper Air/Fuel trim adjustments. First i would try clearing the code and then completely reset your computer by unhooking the battery for 30 mins and see if it runs better before the code...
You should be able to find some pics on this forum of the Typhoon. I ran across threads with pics of the Typhoon a long time ago when i first got my LS. I dont own a Typhoon but from all the pics i have ever seen theres a single bolt hole in the bottom. Before you make brackets you can try Home...
No air bag deployment. It got into the passenger quarter panel so they totaled it. Still runs great i daily drove it up until State Farm decided to total it. 06 LS 172,000 on the car. Rebuilt trans only has 20,000 miles on it. It has Navigation. I have matching spares for both sets of rims and...
Awe man that sucks! Its good you was able to fix it yourself. I do all the work on my vehicles and i seem to have that same kind of "luck". Friday i snapped a EGR valve bolt off in the aluminum intake of a 97 Aerostar Van. And just like the LS finding parts for the Aerostar is almost...
Sorry this just appeared in my email from LVC. If you are still having a problem by now and you applied power to the starter correctly and it did not try to engage or nothing happened then i would say you have stuck brushes or a completely dead starter. Make sure the car is in Park and take a...
I have a 06 LS and i had to check at night with a flashlight to see my waterpump was throwing a drip of coolant every now and then from the top of the pump that's hidden by the throttle body. Changed waterpump and reused the metal gasket fixed mine. I smeared a very thin layer of sealant on the...
@rgorke the pic won't let you see the bottom but this is the thermostat i use in my 06 LS and it's never give me a problem. The OE Motorcraft thermostat was binding itself off when attempting to open. Mine would cycle open sometimes and sometimes it wouldn't cycle at all. Thats why i installed...
