    Possible Blown Headgasket?

    As others mentioned, air in the lines is probably the cause. On the DCCV I thought a had a bad unit when I put in a new one, turned out the wire right at the connector had split in half and I had to cut and solder in a new wire. Our vehicles are 20+ years old with a lot of hot cold cycles and...

    2002 LS V8 Part For Sale, Shocks and Cooling System Parts

    I know you want to sell as an entire lot. I'm interested in all the cooling components except for the belt, t stat housing, and dccv (I did dccv last year, alum stat conversion years ago, and hydro fan / electric fan conversion so no pump and have a shorter belt) if that works.

    No start / rough idle after fill up

    Ultimately tried siphoning the gas through the Schrader valve on the fuel rail with a cheapy hand fluid pump from Harbor Freight - no luck there. Disassembled the fuel line leading to the rail, thinking the injectors might've been causing some air purging (same results with just a half gallon...

    2002 IAC valve replacement / relearn procedure Lincoln LS

    I remember seeing something posted about it years ago, but it was something insane with like 30 steps accelerating and stopping. Fwiw, I replaced mine (turned out my positive wiring was bad so ran a new wire) and did no “relearning”. Ran fine right away. Chances are you have another issue...

    No start / rough idle after fill up

    Apparently the pump was on the way out, or so I suspect. I replaced the pump back in 2013, I only drive 4k per year so a little surprised it went. Voltage to pump is good, though not sure if it receives power then grounds to run because I had voltage with the key cycled and not cycled. 0 psi at...

    Power steering pressure lines

    @Buckie. Thanks again for the assist. Interestingly, I saved mine from the junkyard back in 2009. Didn't have much money and my buddy convinced me since it had a clear title, it was a nice ride that I could put some money into over the year and fix on the cheap - found out way more about this...

    Power steering pressure lines

    Thanks! Nice to see a few of those 600 changes on those fancy Gen IIs included extra power steering line brackets and better rust protection.

    Power steering pressure lines

    Thanks. Not in a super huge rush. Won’t be back under the car until this evening. Parts look up hasn’t been helpful

    Power steering pressure lines

    Replacing my pump and pressure lines and, of course, I didn’t take any pictures and the manual isn’t very helpful. I can’t remember which pressure line goes where on the rack and pinion - there are two right by the steering column. One is the long pressure hose that comes from power steering...

    No start / rough idle after fill up

    The silence around here is deafening, however I dodged a bullet and everything is fine today Left the car overnight went to try it again today before calling a tow. Started right up. So word of the wise for anyone in the future - Do NOT top off your gas. Found topping off can mess up the...

    No start / rough idle after fill up

    Update, now I’m just getting cranks before it fires up (if it does) and dies immediately. I have and OBd fusion but I’m not getting any codes. Probably because it won’t start or runs extremely rough long enough to throw something.

    No start / rough idle after fill up

    Need help. My 02 3.9 I just got done filling up with gas and now it won’t start or runs extremely rough before dying. No known issues, drove to the gas station just fine. I got a long crank initially followed by a rough idle for 5 seconds and then it died. After a few minutes I got it to...

    Code P1504 IAC Circuit Fault. NEED HELP!

    She’s up and running (at idle)! Maybe there is a problem spot in the power wire to the IAC on the Gen I. I ran a splice at the fuse and by the IAC connector. Car immediately did its initial rev for 20 seconds on start up and settled at ~700 RPM on its own. No more feathering the throttle at stop...
