Id check that paperwork and make sure i was getting a decent warranty for $8900 plus install. For that kind of money id want a 100,000 mile warranty. And yea all 06's are V-8. Hopefully i will know something soon im ready to get all this insurance crap settled. For future reference if anyone...

@SultanGris $8900? Is that price for installation too or just for the engine itself? I got a 06 LS setting outside my house right now that took a good shot in the back by some kid in a Ford Excursion with one of those steel brush bar bumpers on it around 60mph. It still runs and drives great...

@jc0528 i had some of the same problems you have mentioned when i bought my 06LS. Mine went like this, hard rough shifting trans went out. Rebuilt the trans then maybe a week later my LS goes into ETC failsafe mode. I took my throttle body apart to find what specifically went wrong with it. On...

You are welcome. The switch is on the side of your oil filter adapter. I know exactly how you feel. It eases the mind knowing you got good oil pressure.

Joe is right. Lincoln didnt provide a way for the owner to tell exactly how many pounds of oil pressure the LS has. Im not sure why that was not included.

No problem . From what i could find out on Rockauto for a 2002 Lincoln LS V-8 they have multilayered steel headgaskets as OEM replacements. Some of the other members here can tell you if they had something different on them when they came out in 2002.

You have to be more specific. Which Lincoln LS are you talking about? 1st Gen or 2 Gen? V-6 or V-8?

Thanks 04 I really do appreciate it. Im gonna go get checked out tomorrow. I can feel it in my neck when i turn my head . I went ahead and worked today it kept my mind off the wreck. My insurance lady told me the exact same thing you just did. She said go whether i was having problems or not...

I gotta share something with you guys and gals. I hope yall don't mind me sharing it here. Its not what i did to my LS today its what someone else did this morning. I got rear ended by a F250 Ford Truck at about 60 mph....I got whiplash, I feel shell shocked il probably have to go to the ER...

Thanks for the response @Dopey. Sorry to hear about all you're trouble. I hope you get it straightened out. Mine turned out to be a bad thermostat. It seemed kinda strange because It didnt start bubbling until I released pressure and let air in by slowly turning the degas cap. When I did that it...

UPDATE Problem Solved= Turns out it had a bad thermostat. No cracks, no broken thermostat flanges, just a thermostat that appears to have finally wore out from opening and closing. I found it by boiling it in the housing in a pot on the stove as per my 2006 Lincoln Workshop manuals I bought a...

Any ideas or helpful comments on this would be appreciated. I drove home from work yesterday an my car sat for about 30 mins then i cranked it an drove 100 feet to my neighbors to pay him some money for a 06 Charger he sold me and noticed my fan was running when i shut the car off at his house...

@CBRKLR another thing you could check is your fuel filter and see if its starting to clog up. I changed mine bout 3 months ago and thick dark brown trash just poured out of it when i dumped it into a bowl. Im not sure how that crap got into the tank to begin with but my filter was full of the...

If you found oil on top of one of your plugs where the cops go then you need to take some brakleen and spray your plug well and blow out the oil residue with air compressor make sure your cop an plug dont have any oil residue still on them when you reinstall them. Also id check my other plugs n...

@tireman dont take offence to this but if you ever decide to sell your worthless old LS let me know. I might be interested in buying it from you since its worthless .
