Custom-made hoses and compression rings Went to the automotive shop that makes new A/C and hydraulic line sets for classic cars. Had used them for my old Chevelle, years ago. I removed the large and small hoses, and the Temperature Control Lockout Valve and Switch - the top of the T...

hi Elessee, Would you be so kind as to take a look at my lastest post and see if you know the answer. I am trying to determine the exact name of a hose in the engine department. I have been getting conflicting names and advice. I've checked around the web and am not finding a comperable...

Specs: 1994 Lincoln Continental - Executive Series Looking for OEM Bypass Heater Hose part number F10H18D334. This is the hose that begins at the manifold and meanders to firewall to hook onto the Temperature Control Lockout Switch. Note in the picture that the OEM hose has the...

Valve is stuck, but O ring could use replacing too Thanks for the tip. BTW: I had checked out his web site before and just did it again. It's kind of, well, hard to navigate his site. For real, its like when you first arrive, you have to do a double take to be sure you're not...

Specs" 1994 Lincoln Continental, Executive Series Problem: Right Front selenoid valve As fate would have it, the valve I bought for the right front driver side air bag, is worse than the one I replaced. This one I purchased from a junkyard because I could not find a new part. This one...

Update: Air Ride issue Resolved - culprit was the valve I figured out what was caused the excessive height and then right front drop over night on my Continental. I'd given up and had the car for sale but no takes when they saw her system jacking itself up too high with the right corner...

Have any of you followed Ford's revitalization plans the past few years? Being a Chevy and Caddy man, I was focused on GM. Now that I own a '94 Continental, I am looking at Ford. The Wall Street Journal is saying Ford may let go of the brand citing people's tastes have changed and the...

Air Ride still not resolved Arggggggg! :mad: Drove the Lincoln to work, yesterday. Some of my fellow employees chided me about my “tricked out jacked up Lincoln.” It is so high, you can see the air bag behind the wheel. In the morning I noticed passenger side down. No space between...

Use of Lincoln recommended tools Well, now you've called me on it :D Daughter's Mark 7 boyfriend did most of the work and I assisted and learned. By the way, he seemed to know that trick you posted above about getting the new bag warm. He put a clean sheet of newspaper on the driveway...

I completed air bag install Hey thanks for the input. I hadn't checked this forum before tackling the job on Saturday. I went to the Lincoln dealer and to a Napa store and purchased the "Special Tools." The kid (daughter's boyfriend that owns a '86 Mark 7) came over we got it done...

Have you checked battery cables? What condition are your battery cables? When is the last time you cleaned them with a wire brush?

Length of time to remove, install, close up front air bag Got a nice surprise when I arrived home from work, tonight -- the Lincoln Factory Manual arrived. After reading the section on installing a front air bag, I had the feeling this is no one-hour job. It also calls for special tools...

after an airbag replacement? Found a shop willing to replace the airbag, but they're saying extra cost for the front-end alignment that has to be done afterwards. All Data is not showing anything about this issue. Is this true? Opinions, please.
