    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    UPDATE: Only been a couple weeks now since I installed the Dragon Fires Coils - So far so good. NOTE: They did have this strange white grease of some sort on the tip of the rubber. I didn't wipe it off because it seemed intentional. Something to help bridge any gap in the electrical signal...

    Any suggestions for new coils?

    My god.... if I ever have to do this.... I think I'll deal with a CEL I've had the one for my clockspring on there for almost 3 years now... but hey the price dropped from almost 300 for a new clock spring to 150. So I have that going for me which is nice. Although I probably would have saved...

    Any suggestions for new coils?

    I haven't been on here very often lately... but I do now understand where the rage comes from in regards to people not using the search function.... Or even opening up their eyes and bothering to scan through a few pages of the most recent posts....

    Key Fob Replacement

    I keep my FOB on a quick detach keychain clip. Only thing I DON'T like about this mod is that doing this would make it so that you can't leave the car running at the gas station, lock it, and run in - I also have a GenI with no door keypad entry system. If it weren't for that I would be all...

    A funny story about the LS

    Since my car is having issues with the COP's right now I borrowed a co-workers/friends car to go to my orthodontist appointment that's 45minutes away this morning. Going from a LSV8 to a 2000 toyota corolla 4banger.... I felt like I was driving a motorized shopping cart compared to the LS. haha...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    Which is EXACTLY WHY I MADE THIS POST. To find out if going NON-OEM is something that wont or will hurt me in the long run... or the short run depending on the life of the car. If the threat of my cats getting ruined is really that great because of a choice to save $200/$300 now - well...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    I really don't want to be a dick here after all the help on this thread. So please take this with a grain of salt and know that its not personal. I know this "fact" gets thrown around A LOT on this forum... but honestly this is NOT a Mercedes or a Lotus or what have you. Yes I know the window...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    I'm guessing your talking about "DG-515 & DG-529" with DG-529 being the newest revision I assume since the part# is higher?? I've bought a few things from the tasca ebay store, and other highly rated parts sellers with no issues myself - But I do see what you mean about people selling off the...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    Didn't mean to make you beat a dead horse, I hella appreciate the info, I just happen to be at work and didn't have the time on my lunch break to search around for the answer you provided on how to tell if its a vacuum leak. I hope to order the parts here today, but I still wasn't positive this...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    Thanks for the input loud. I just also DON'T KNOW FOR SURE that coils ARE INDEED THE ISSUE since no code has been thrown. I'm assuming they are because of the issues described in the thread linked in my first post - according to the sticky (the homebrew Owners Manual one) it could also be a...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    I do agree with you, the sticky posts are a great place to start. Also I have learned quite a bit about the car and its workings from scanning threads looking for an answer to my issue. I just haven't had much luck in finding a post that says, "brand XYZ Coil's have worked for me, I recommend...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    Well, its really quite the "easy fix" mechanically speaking. (so it would probably never have its own sticky) But its also a REALLY COMMON ISSUE - 1st thing on the "REAL OFFICIAL LINCOLN LS OWNERS GUIDE!!!! Basic tips and info." sticky post. I'm surprised at my lack of luck in finding a post...

    (Probably) Bad COP's - Looking for advice on replacements

    Been having some issues with my 2002 LSe v8 lately, at first I thought it was my transmission since I was 8k overdue for a flush last week, but after the flush I was still having the same issues. After reading this thread...

    LSE parts for sale

    How much that go for? Just curious as I know they are rare as hell (Gen1's anyways) Mine is a little broken currently, and i have a Gen2 LSE front bumper sitting in storage waiting for me to put it on... but I'm also considering selling that since I can't find Gen2 LSE front bumpers online...

    Double DIN Installation Proceedure w/front factory tweeters

    I totally agree, but from what I recall when doing my research prior to installing the deck... the "wiring harness kit" has multiple grounds as its not designed for 1 HU, its designed for 1 car and a BRAND of HU's. Some having more ground wires than others. My deck however only had 1. I probably...

    Double DIN Installation Proceedure w/front factory tweeters

    Umm... as I said... I also wrapped them in electrical tape... I didn't rely on heat shrink tubing explicitly... the wrap job is very tight... none of those wires were lose at all when I checked my connections about the "on off issue". So Not really worried about a short or electrical fire. Also...
