I'm planning on replacing the upper control arms and wheel knuckes on my 2001 LS this weekend (bad ball joints). I was reading thru the procedure on the technical service publication CD and it seems that every bolt and nut I need to remove needs to be discared and replaced because it is of...

I bought a used 01 LS V8 Sport. How can I get rid of the cigarette smell. I've cleaned it many times and the smell is gone except for when it is damp outside (foggy rainy, snowy) and I turn on the heater/defroster. The smell is defiantly stale cigarettes not burning oil or antifreeze. I've...

I hear all you guys talking about this Xcal2 tuner and finally checked it out on thier web site. I noticed they have a tune for 87 octane. Has anyone ou their ran there car with this tune? I realize most of you buy it for the HP (93 performance tune) but did anyone use it get more economy out...

I got a price to put some flowmaster series 40 delta flows on my 01 ls v8. I'm a little worried that the 40's will be too loud. I wanted to go with the 50 series but he said that they would not fit (body too big). I'm keeping the factory piping and resonators just swapping the mufflers...

I did a double take but it was defenatly a LS. That's one LS I don't want a ride in ;-)

I had the windshield in replaced on my 01 LS V8 the other day. Ever since then the auto wiper feature doesn't seem to work at all. It is usually kind of finicky, but it doesn't work at all now. The replacement glass is genuine since it has the Lincoln logo. I can also see the area of the...

I'm getting new rubber on Thursday so I took the time to smoke a few 32nds off the old ones last night. I power braked for a few seconds and then let it roll ahead, it started to go sideways but I was able to stay in it. The marks are 4 or 5 car lengths long and possi the whole way. :)...

I've been hearing a lot of talk about E-85 (85% ethanol + 15% gasoline) fuel in the news. Does anyone know if our Lincolns can run on this stuff? It's not even an option yet here on the east coast but maybe some of you guys from the mid-west have some experience to share....

So my wife broke off the passenger side mirror backing into the garage a few weeks back. The damage to the outside (visible) portion of the mirror was nil so instead of paying for a new mirror, I figured I'd try fix it with some of that gorilla glue I've been hearing about. There are three...

I know that doesn't seem possible but it happened to me the other day. I had the wife and kids with me and stopped for a fill up, but since it was very cold I left the car running. Anyway when I got back in the car the gas gauge was still reading empty and my fuel range was still displaying 30...

So the left front door speaker on my 01 LS sounds like crap. What's strange is I had the speaker out and it looked fine. In the past, when I had a speakers go bad I could actually see a tear in the speaker or something physically wrong. I'm not an audio guy so my dumb question is can the...

I have a dumb question. What are the black plastic pieces that are located inside of the rear wheel wells in front of the rear wheels? They are about 6 or 8 inched wide. They are screwed fast to the inside of the wheel well and appear to extend the wheel well below the underside of the body...

Since I'm new here this may have already been covered. I have an 01 LS V8 with the select shift tranny. According to the owners manual (and my own experience) while in SST mode the only way to get the tranny is 1st gear is to pull out from a stop in 2nd and then push the "go pedal" into the...
