I purchased a 94 Mark VIII today. It is white, tan interior, sunroof, chrome rims and has 135k on it. Picked it up for $2100.
The bad: Any help would be appreciated
Trans fluid is leaking,did not notice durning test drive but I have a spot in my driveway. Any usuall places these leak?
Drive door handle is broken, still works but the left corner is hanging down.
The headlights are very dim.
The windows go down but you have to guide them back up.
Besides the lil things this car is great. The air ride seems to work great. Smooth ride.
 
You picked up you Mark?

Mental note. Don't piss off the Hulk.


The trannies on these marks typically leak around.. well.. around the gaskets.

Driver's door is an easy fix. Search my son, search.

Headlights are dim because there is a good chance the reflective material in the housings is shot. Common problem.

Windows. Sounds like you need a new window track.
 
Yes I picked it up right over my head lol. I will search lol. So most likely the pan gasket?
 
I've heard that a common trans fluid leak is the O ring on the dipstick tube (a cheap and easy fix).

I'd get under the car and clean up all the fluid, and then take the car for a short drive.

Then, take a good flashlight under the car, and you should be able to trace the source of the leak.
 
I hope it is something simple. Any idea where to get instructions for the o ring and trans gasket?
 
Not yet. I got it last night. I will get some this weekend though.
