rough ride

[THEMOJOMAN]

I just got back to near Tampa,,haven't driven my 95 Mark VIII for almost two years,,it's garage kept,,44,000,,everything runs fine,, Had new Michelin Tires put on just before we went north in March 2010,,HOWEVER it rides rougher than I remember,,took it back to tire shop and had them re-balanced tires,,left front was off a tiny bit,,between 40-50 MPH it's the roughest,,,AND COMING TO SLOW STOP It seems to me I can feel it going up and down slightly to left then right,,very faintly. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

drive it a bit more, sounds like your brakes, can you feel it in the brake pedal too?

tires have flat spots from sitting

Ya know, a Mark doesn't deserve to sit in it's lonesome for 2 years at a time. You should consider letting me hold onto it while you are away.

+1. Have the tires road force balanced. That will determine which tire or tires are causing the problem.

+2, I believe you may have up to 4 flat spots on all 4 of your tires, if that's the case be prepared tobuy a new set!

Yea that's what I was thinking.

If its just riding rough but it idles and the engine sounds fine start from the ground up.
