hello all, i have a 98 Mark LSC (my baby) shes been down for the last 4 months after the thermostat control went out and trashing the heads as a result of that.
I finally put together enough $$ for an engine rebuild, my friend works out of his home and basically charged me for parts and pizza for labor
After it was finally put back together it ran for a day and the transmission went out
I do have a 97 parts car that i was told was identical so he pulled the tranny out of that one but now its giving error codes.
Come to find out the 97 transmission is not comatible with the 98... go figure.
So... i need a new transmission. does it need to be from a 98? if not what model/years will work for me.
im about to pull my hair out this is going on far to long and getting pricey but the car has great sentimental value as it was shared between me and my 18 year old son that i lost in a car accident a few years ago
I need this car back up and running!!! sorry for being so long winded im just at my wits end
Any help advice is greatly appreciated, also if anyone has a tranny for sale....maybe just maybe
Thank you
