    1998 LSC with leaky passenger side headlight fixture

    Greetings all, I picked up a gorgeous 98 LSC with not much more than 60k miles late last year, and its been my daily driver since and I love it. When I got the car, I noticed the passenger side fixture had some water spots at the bottom, but the drivers side did not. We have had some pretty...

    Message Center Show the temp of the Engine Coolant??

    I remember when I test drove a 97 Base years ago, I could swear it provided the temp of the coolant/engine on the screen, and I remember it was at 186 degrees when I drove it. But I could also be wrong, and it may be another car I was driving that showed this and maybe I am having a brain fart...

    Dash Speedo lights - do they turn on and off automatically with headlights turned on?

    I just bought my 98 LSC a month ago and LOVE the car.. makes me realize how much I missed my 94 (late 93 model) which was very noticeably quicker. The 2nd gen has improvements as we all know and I am still getting used to the updates, like with the message center that seems to be more...

    Hy-per Lube Coolant Additive

    I searched the forum and could not find anything for this... Does, or has anyone used Hy-per Lube in the past? Its supposed to be equivalent to Redline Water Wetter, which I have used in the past years ago.. but some people are complaining about the green Hy-per lube product foaming up. As you...

    1998 LSC with 63k miles with Lucas Trans Additive??

    Hello all, I bought a beautiful 98 LSC about a week ago... drove her back home no issues. She is on original air suspension, with upper front ball joints needing to be changed. I am buying the parts to rebuild the entire front end, and possibly even the extra braces they sell from...

    Purchase of a 1997 Mark VIII LSC listed in Craigslist - Need Opinions Please!

    Hello All, I have not been on here for a while, since I sold my 94 Mark VIII back in 2015 after I picked up a 2009 Lexus SC430.. Long story short, my Mark needed too many things to be done and had over 330k miles, with a previous owner that did not take care of it very well, despite the air...

    Bye Bye to my Mark - Potentially picking up a 98 LSC CE, or 97 LSC

    I can not seem to catch up with the repairs on my Mark, and it may be time to throw in the towel. I have a 94 base, but its a late 93 model, and to my understanding has a few parts that I should probably take off to move to the newer one, including computer and drive shaft? I have 260k miles...

    Headlights that do not turn off!!

    I never had working auto lamps since I got the car. Hell, I dont even fully know how they work to be honest.. I know that one dial turns up and down the dash lights in brightness, and if you push it far enough, it will click and turn on the interior lights. The other dial I have no clue because...

    Car Keyed ENTIRE Length!!!

    I tried reviving the old post but it kept giving me errors... Here is my baby!! I dont drive it much because it needs a lot of work, and I have a 99 Accord beater (only 40k miles) that I put most of the wear and tear on. Anyway, I posted my last thread on 12/2 and never got the chance to...

    Splendid.. After a year of sitting, I finally get my 94 Mark VIII Base back on the road, and immediately it starts getting messed with. Someone keyed the passenger side from the side mirror all the way to tail. I dont know what the **** it is with these ****ing people that do this ****ing...

    Broken Headlight Adjustment Post

    I may have just pissed on my own parade. I recently got some good headlights of mark at the wrecking yard, but then noticed tonight that one of the adjustment posts (the top one) on passenger side headlight broke off. I was going to take these apart and restore them since my lights on my mark...

    An interesting set of articles on the Mark VIII and a concept Mark VIII

    An interesting treat! I dont know if you guys have seen these articles in the past, but I just ran into them recently when digging through and parting with some of my old Motor Trend magazines. One of them was from 96 and Titled Americas Most Powerful which included 10 in the list which included...

    Right brake light and turn signal not working - Auto lamp feature not working

    1. My tail lights, light up when I turn on the headlights. However the right side wont light up when I hit the brakes, or the right turn signal. When I turn on the signal, it blinks very fast like as if there is a bad bulb. Left side works fine - its getting really annoying. I tried using...

    Radiator Fan not spinning fast, and the reading on the temp gauge

    In the past, I noticed that these Mark fans are very powerful obviously, and that they speed up as needed. 1. My makes a slight squeaky sound, and even when the motor is getting up in the warm range, it doesnt speed up any more. I installed a Mark fan on my 5.0 Tbird years ago, and it seemed...

    1994 Mark VIII cranking but not starting

    My 94 Mark (base with 240k miles roughly) decided to not start up today - I thought it was the fuel pump at first but after checking I hear the pump starting up when turning the key to "accessory." I have had this same issue in the past caused by the factory alarm. I dont have the key...
