I found the product. It is Dorman part number 34191. Yes it is listed in the Mustang section with 4.6 liter sohc. I will order one Monday. Thank you LVC :D

OK - Thank you. I will try looking using those words.

I have the 2003 Town Car. So the bearings on my A/C compressor or clutch are groaning a bit. Also it does not make cold anymore. I am too nervous to drive any distance and have been parked for a year. I would like to remove the compressor and replace it with a dummy pulley. Alternatively, is...

I have a 1998 Olds Aurora with the 4.0 litre Olds type Northstar. I come here because I also have a Lincoln and this forum is pretty popular. Many of my cars parts are interchangeable with the Cadillac. I believe the full name of what I am working on is the EGR water pump crossover pipe. I...

The effect is hard to feel if the column ujoints are becoming seized. (a) switch on - you have speed variable power steering that will feel very stiff to the driver if the ujoints are seizing (b)switch off - you will have full power steering that will still feel very stiff to the driver if...

Like I said, I replaced the lower steering column assembly. This is a group of ujoints. This has solved my problem 100%. Lots of guys told me I needed a new rack and pinion, they were wrong. I did not need a new module or anything else.

An easy way to test the variable effort steering is turn a toggle switch in the trunk to off. This turns off the variable effort portion plus your air suspension, and you have full power steering. I replaced the lower steering column assembly. It seems to have worked, not 100% sure? There is...

The fluid level is up. I might have to change and bleed if that turns out to be the problem. Re. being intermittent: I drove around about 50 miles the other day and it was hard. Stopped at a gas station, fueled up, and it got easy again. I don't expect it to last though, it always gets...

I have a 2003 Cartier. The power steering has become hard, like twice as hard as it should be. At first it was intermittent - it would be hard for a while and then get easy. Now it won't get easy anymore. The speed of the car does not change it. It is as though the computer thinks I'm going...

I'm not sure Olds comes before Buick. My own perception is Buick, Olds, Cadillac. This is based on close component sharing between Cadillac and Olds. It seems like luxury parts developed at Cadillac, would "trickle down" to Olds before Buick. I can't historically back this all up, maybe you...

We have a 2003 Town Car Cartier. I try to be the mechanic as much as possible. I just finished spring oil and lube, front and back brakes, and planning a sparks plug change. We have a nice Aurora to satisfy the Northstar needs for a while. :V
