Folks:
Just let go of my 98 Mark VIII :( and found a great sedan:) ...99 DeVille d'Elegance. What a ride!!!
Question: When I shut off the engine, I still hear faint static out of the speakers. Even after opening the drivers door.
Any body else experience this??
Well, according to my trusted mechanic, the L/M dealer was right on...it is the hydraulic pump for ABS. It's sticking badly. He's going to try a complete brake system "flush" and see if it will unstick the cylinder. ($89.00)
Otherwise, it's a replacement pump for $1500.00+labor
THanks for the tips, folks....I took the car to the L/M dealer thinking they know what they're doing...I'm going back to my regular mechanic who I trust.
Folks:
My 98 Mark started pulling to the right while braking. The L/M dealer shop replaced frozen caliper and brake hoses ($700+).
It still pulls to the right while braking.
Now they are telling me it's a hydraulic ABS pump and could cost me well over $1,500 to have it rebuilt...
I want to do the conversion. Question: Should I also replace the shocks and mounts while I'm under there anyway? Also, would I be better off getting a Lincoln dealer to do the conversion, or will my trusted mechanic do just fine?
Thanks!
Man, this is weird...yesterday, my 98 Mark did the same thing!!!!! No sh___t!
My gauge told me I had 50 miles left in gas. It was parked on the lawn tilting to the left.
cranked and cranked but nothing happened.
I got my gas can and dumped about 2 gallons into the tank.
Started...
