Thanks for the quick responses. What I meant to say is when I press the button to see what the outside temp is it shows 60 degrees when it actually is about 20 degrees hotter outside. I don't know if this makes a difference but about 2 months ago my mechanic replaced the fuel injectors and the...

It doesn't feel like the heater is on, it feels like the ambient temp. The air conditioner won't kick in because it thinks the temp is 60 degrees which is what the display says even though in reality it is about 20 degrees higher.

My air conditioner blows hot air, it is reading the temp wrong. The temp readout says it is 60 degrees but the real temp is actually 80 degrees. Why doesn't it sense the real temperature, is it a fuse, a sensor, I have no idea all I know that right now I am frying in my car, thanks.

I'm still confused about which timing kit to get. Some vendors say it's for the years 2000 to 2001, some 2000 to 2002 and others say 2001 to 2005. Also when looking at the kits on ebay they sell 2 different timing chain kits for the 2001 Lincoln ls v8. According to them in 2001 two 3.9L engines...

The problem he said he called the Lincoln dealer, autozone , rock auto, ect and can't find anyplace that...

2001 LS V-8 ENGINE with about 125,000 miles on it. A couple of months ago my car started with a rough idle but once the car is driven above the idle speed it runs okay. The exhaust also has a strong smell to it. The engine check light is on. I took it to auto zone to have the engine light...
