Take a look at this. It's not a Mark VIII, but it sure is our engine. It even tells the Gen1 guys how they can retrofit.

Yes, I searched, but there are literally so many results that I could not get the answer I was looking for.
I am going to be converting on of my Mark VIII's from air suspension, and I want to run Koni 5-ways for a Thunderbird, and Thunderbird lowering springs from H&R. Now as I understand it...
Is this common, or is this a sign of something? New fuel pump?
I was low on fuel, but not dead yet. Indicator had me at 20 miles left, based on an average of 11 mpg. I went to go change a lane real quick, and the car died. Started it up, ran fine. Went to change a lane quickly again. Dead...
OK, so last night I finally installed my conversion kit that I got from him.
For those of you who are not familiar with this kit, it is a kit that completely replaces the HID system on 1997-1998 Lincoln Mark VIII cars with all new modern HID bulbs, wiring, and ballasts. The object is to...
I'm going by the stealer tomorrow to get one, but in the likely event that they do not have it in stock I wanted to see if anyone near NYC has one they can sell to me.
Blower just took a crap on me today for no reason at all. I tested the voltage at the plug, and the plug is receiving...
I popped a CEL earlier this week that turned out to be code P1518 (stuck open IMRC's) and began the usual liberal usage of SeafOam and CRC intake cleaner. After doing this a few times and achieving nothing, I decided to just reach my hand back there and twist them manually. Sure enough, it was...
This is the result of changing my oil on my second Mark VIII, which did not have a remote filtration system until today:
Filter was a B*TCH to get off. At least it was a Napa Gold, meaning the previous owner at least tried to take care of it.
Here are the Genuine and Official Ford...
I know somebody, one of the girls I think had this problem. Today, just out of nowhere, I start getting this fluttering and popping noise from my intake at idle. Just about every 15 seconds, it would just go "PLUP PLUP PLUP" and then go back to normal.
I replaced the IAC valve and the noise...
I was just cleaning out my K&N filter today when i noticed that I had never removed the little "silencer" int he fenderwell. I decided to stick my hand in there to see just what kind of restriction I might be looking at.
It kind of feels like it maintains its whole diameter all the way...
OK, so a friend of mine has a Gen2 mark VIII, and his cruise control, horn, cruise buttons, and cruise lights (on the wheel) don't work.
Seems to me his clockspring is fuxored, since the clockspring routes every single one of those functions. :)
First of all, yes I searched, but the results were VERY broad.
Simple question: What ratio did you previously have, what ratio are you now running, and what effect on fuel economy (positive or negative) have you noticed?
I know this can be different for every car, so I thought I would ask...
Does the coil conversion really make our cars handle that much better? Is there any way to say just how much better if so?
Trying to decide if I want to go ahead and redo the air springs, or do the coil conversion.

Might be a better option for those who don't want to lay out for the HID conversion.
Just liek the title says. While everyone was doing their spinning, slipping, and sliding act, I was driving just like any other day of the week. Even the Quattro Audis didn't have anything on me. People kept flagging me down asking me for a push. :D
It was just me and the 4WD trucks out...
Alright ladies and gentlemen. I came across what was claimed to be one of the nicest LSCs left out there, but it has a bit of an illness. When I drove the car, there was a slight shuddering on the shift from first to second. Upon further inspection, I found both the brake fluid and the...
What are the dimensions of the OEM 98 radiator? I would check myself, but it appears I'd have to move quite a bit out of the way in order to do so.
I'm going to be working on a radiator upgrade this weekend, and I wanted to know this info beforehand. Nothing wrong with my cooling system as it...
Yeap. Some son of a bitch smashed in my window last night. The brake boot ad the alarm must have discouraged them, because they never even opened the door.
So, now I got a smashed window too. Oh well, I guess they replace that with the rest of the entire driver's side of my car. :rolleyes...
