1995 Mark VIII front end going nuts

So I bought my Mark VIII last week and I was driving to work the other day and the front end of the car after every bump hops up and down like I have hrdraulics on the car and its been doing it ever since. Then the next morning after it started the front end of the car is all jacked up on it. So we disconnected the battery and reconnected it and it lowered itself down. Took it for a test drive and it still rode the same and then the next morning the front end is jacked up again. So then i ride it to work and the service level ride sign came on or something like that. So I dropped it off at my dads buddies place for him to look at it. Has anybody else had this problem?

Sounds like it has a bad leveling sensor for the front. If it is a high mileage car it probably needs new front struts as well.

the car has 91,6xx miles on it. I'm thinking its just a bad sensor but the compressor also always kicks on. SO I'm thinking I might have a leak also somewhere in the suspension

It actually sounds like you have a leak in your system. Most likely in one of the front bags, or maybe a sticking vent solenoid somewhere.
