MTB, thanks for all the help. I'm gonna go out this morning and check some of the things you just mentioned. I'll also get a t-stat, some anti freeze. As for the cluster, do you have to de-solder the joints first and then re-solder? Or just put the heat to it and re-solder? Will

I added about a gallon of water to my radiater just now as it was overheating when I picked my daughter up, and now it idles like crap. It didn't before I added the water. I don't know if this is related to the idle issue or not but it sure seems like it.

Thanks for your help

OK, I have a 94 conti signature with the ever so wonderful 3.8 liter v-6. This car has been nothing both trouble ever since I bought it. :mad: Any way, Monday on my way to work, driving down the highway about 70, I got an over temp chime as my temp gauge was blinking. Didn't sound like the...

I've been reading this post with interest. I posted codes I received on my 94 conti, and after 125 reads, I have had zero responses. Maybe someone can look again as now I have replaced my starter and have horrible running at idle. It also smells like fuel when idleing. Cars runs like crap...

Yea, I remember when I pulled the cluster the last time to fix some thing, I broke all the solder joints on the plug on the right side of the dash. I mean I pulled it all right out, so none of the info center items are selectable. I mean I still get the info, I just can't select any thing or...

Since writing about my "Odd steering issues" I decided to whip out the code reader and pull the codes from my 1992 Conti Signature with the 3.8 liter V-6. Since I'm not a Ford tech, but have a book that came with the reader, I'm not sure where to go from here.....Maybe some one with more...

The belt and p/s fluid are both fairly new and need no attention. ANY issues with the speedo? Well, sometimes I've seen it reading 10 mph while sitting at the stop light. And sometimes my check dcl light flashes on and chimes. My brake lamp warning light chimes most of the time, but I read in...

I have a 92 continental. I am getting a noise that is related I think, to the steering. I think steering because when at idle, with the A/C on, I have a sort of vibration, or grinding kinda of noise that goes away if I turn my steering wheel to the left. If I turn it to the right it gets louder...

Thanks for the input. They were who I had looked at as well and was kinda leaning towards. Think I will go with them. Will

I would like to hear input from anyone who has replaced the air struts with any of the conversion struts. I am trying to decide which manufacturer sells the better conversion strut. Also it would be nice to hear what you think of the ride since converting. Thanks to all who reply, I...

OK guys, I've got a 92 conti that I believe needs the water pump replaced. How hard is it really? Looks like it's pretty easy, need to jack the passenger side of the motor, but that's not really a problem. Any thoughts from experienced guys would be really appreciated. Tips, etc....Thanks to...

Is it very difficult to replace the oil pan gasket on a 92 continental with a 3.6 liter engine? any tips, tricks or things to watch out for? Thanks to any one who might post a response.

Are you kidding me? Not one response? Are you kidding me? No one has any ideas? Well let me tell you all what fixed it, no, never mind, I'll just say it's fixed.:p

I have a new brake problem that has developed in the past few days. My brake pedal occasionally does not return to the full top position . It seems more prevolent when the vehicle gets warm. I can lightly lift the pedal with my foot and it will return. I have removed the protective under dash...
