    2000 Navigator Overheating

    I'm having an issue with my Navigator I'm hoping you guys can help me with. I just bought it like a month ago so I don't know a ton about it. It had a small leak by the upper hose, which I thought was a clamp so I replaced it. It still leaked so I was thinking it was a small hole in the...

    '98 Continental - Radio Has No Power

    Just got this car, 81,000 original miles, everything is in great shape. Only issue is radio doesn't work, there's no power at all. I checked all three fuses associated with the radio (#4, #29 & #37) and all of the fuses are good (ohm tested). I switched all three of those fuses anyways for...

    Variable Orifice Tube vs Fixed

    Anyone use a variable instead of a fixed? I live in Florida (obviously) and the temps get way up during this time of the year. I do most all stop and go and light to light driving. I understand variable is suppose to help with the high temp climates and increase idle cooling. I'm rebuilding...

    Need Some Help Diagnosing Misfire? After Car Is Hot

    You can feel it when stopped, like a "putt putt" feeling real quick and then it'll go away or it'll just happen really intermittent. Once she's good and hot, if I shut it off and start it back up a few minutes later, it runs like absolute crap for a a good 20 seconds and then it's normal but...

    Cross Compatible Idle Air Control Valves? Help Please.

    I'm trying to find a Motorcraft IAC Valve. I put in a BWD about a year ago and I'm having issues associated with a bad IAC Valve. I have been looking online the last few hours, bouncing ideas off some guys on Facebook. The one for my 93 is Motorcraft CX1649 which I cannot find anywhere for...

    Steeda Underdrive Crank Pulley?

    Does anyone have just the harmonic balancer for sale by chance? I know there is a Parts Wanted section but nobody ever responds in there. I have a seller who has the water pump and alternator pulleys, new, but he used the harmonic balancer. I looked online everywhere and I'm having no...

    4-Hole Injectors That Work On The Mark?

    Preferably without having to use injector adapters. I was told 2000 Ford Taurus with the Duratec engine has the 24#/4-hole injectors. I pulled some off one at the JY but I'm not positive they're 24#. Any insight would be great. I'd really like to update to the 4-hole injector and I'm...

    What does an average rear-end rebuild/install cost?

    I pulled the chunk from a 2000 Explorer (Eddie Bauer Edition) this weekend, which of course has the 3.73 LS. This is the EXACT setup I wanted, and it was from an abandoned vehicle, so it cost me nothing. I couldn't pass it up. Now of course I was informed it's a 31-spline and I'll need to...

    Has anybody done this before? I haven't pulled mine off in over a year, so I can't remember what I ran into last time, but I'm sitting here with my other 93 wheel I'm going to be putting in this weekend when I swap interior (again) that I want to put the 96 illuminated buttons I saved from my...

    I've done some research and had a few different brands come up as options. What is the best paint to use for painting our dashes? Also, for anyone who might know or might have done this before, I need black to match a 93 stock black so which would be the best match (brand wise). I'd like...

    (Help)Removing Seats From JY Car

    About to go pull an entire interior out of a JY car today (minus the seats) but I have to get the seats out to get the carpet. Car obviously won't have a battery and we all know the joys of trying to get a seat out when you can't move them. I've never attempted to remove anything that...

    Cobra Water Pump "Upgrade"?

    Been researching a bit and I just want some clarification on this swap. 1) Is it the "short" build or the "long" build? 2) Do you re-use your pulley when you swap the pump out? 3) Motorcraft or bust? I've found a few on eBay, and wouldn't mind some opinions. Used Ford Pump Bosch...

    Stock Transmission Cooler with Bracket Assembly?

    I had heard before that there was a pretty rare stock transmission cooler package, add-on, recall addition, whatever it was, on the Mark VIIIs. I've only seen one person post a picture a ways back about the stock bracket and cooler. Today, I went to the junk yard I always scavenge to to look...

    WTB: Complete Mark VIII or Super Coupe Rear Diff

    I'm looking for either the 3.27 w/TL out of the Super Coupe (or if someone has one built with 3.73 or 4.10) or preferably one from a Mark with built 3.73 w/TL or 4.10 w/TL. I found a Super Coupe one on eBay with 3.27 & TL for $260 shipped, but I'm more looking for 3.73 or 4.10's from a Mark...

    Dipstick Seal Question

    Anyone know the size? I BELIEVE mine is leaking, and I want to change it this weekend. I looked it up on Rockauto and came up with ATP Part # JO15. Referenced that on e-bay and the size comes up as 3/4" outside diameter, 5/16" inside diameter. I've never pulled a tube before, so I'm likely...

    My Rebuild Project - DJG 93 Mark VIII

    So, I've been posting here for a couple months now since I came into my Mark. Quick back story: My little brother purchased the car back in March 2013 and shortly after his work dropped his hours a lot. He wasn't able to keep up with the cost of gas in this beast, and I had two cars at the...

    [Q] Instrument Cluster Needles (Cross Compatible)

    Alright so I was told the 2000 Ford Taurus needles were cross compatible with the Mark VIII. I ran across one in the JY with needles in excellent condition so I grabbed them. Tore into my cluster today and went to replace mine. Only the speedometer needles match, the others have a "hole" on...
