Oh my! Someone has swallowed it whole!

From what I understood in the video, boost was set @ 10 psi but somehow it jumped up to 15 psi during the run. I'm sure with some patience & more tuning/refining, the MK VIII is just fine with boosted power.

Looking for a L/H driver front fender for my nephews (used to be mine!) 1997 Lincoln MK VIII/Mark 8. Color doesn't matter, he's a college student & just needs a fender that's not destroyed. If you have one & are in the Wichita, KS/Denton, TX/Fayetteville, AR areas, we can make arrangements...

That's desert tan, correct?

I've used the Hooker Aero-Chamber mufflers on my 1994 Crown Vic & 1996 Gran Marquis, both with 4.6 v8. No drone, cabin stays quiet, but WOT they make beautiful noise out of the tailpipe. Highly recommended. My current 1997 MK VIII has true mandrel bent dual exhaust, manifold cats only, X-pipe...

Had to do same thing last week, except mine was worse as the oil pressure sender bung was cracked. Could not locate a replacement oil filter adapter locally, so had a shop (Cylinder Head Repair - Wichita KS) cut off damaged portion & weld on some aluminum stock, drilled & tapped for new oil...

Last week, L/H front air bag finally let go. Installed (2) Westar air struts. Appear to be working ok, but there were a couple of glitches during install. The lower bolt hole to mount strut to lower control arm is too small & had to be drilled out. Also, the solenoid valve tabs are half the...

...asham8?????

Will it still self level when passengers or cargo are added? I thought w/the switch off it turns the complete system off.

Has anyone tried or accomplished disabling the automatic lowering function when the car reaches the 45 - 50 mph threshold? I have my Mark VIII sitting at just the ride height I like for looks & comfort below highway speeds, but when it lowers itself above 45 - 50 mph, it is a harsh ride with...

Ha, those pics could have been take of my MK VIII! Same leak, & so far same fix - NONE. Mine is not enough to justify changing the pan gasket yet. Just enough to make an annoying mess. Hardly any oil qty drop between changes.
