Ok, if there's a cooling system leak such as the degas bottle, would the system stay in operating temp when parked and idling but climb to overheating real quick when starting to drive it?

Does anyone have a list of all the plastic parts for gen 1 and gen 2 cooling systems and who sells them all?

Car temp was running relatively well considering the 90-100 degree heat lately. As long as I ran the AC. But last night on the way home that luck seemed to run out. 11:30 at night in 78 degree temps I ended up having to turn the AC to full heat because the car temp seemed to be climbing fast...

I know the problems with the cooling systems on these cars are primarily the plastic fittings for the hoses and the coolant overflow bottle but has anyone ever had a leak pop up right behind the water pump? Mine seems to have sprung one there and it starts to squirt a bit when it gets up in temp.

I have what I can only describe as a low pitched muffled rattle in the front of my 02 LS 3.9L. When I bought the car the guy told me he had the control arms and ball joints replaced at all four corners and gave me receipts for it. It sounds like a bad bushing when you go over rough road or...

I've had a kinda rattle in the front suspension since I got the car last year. All of the suspension was replaced apparently except for the struts. I had got a good used set from the eBay LS guy in Texas and it quieted down for a bit but is almost back to the same. I think I've finally narrowed...

Ok. Last week the AC clutch fuse had burned out and I wasn't getting cold air. I hadn't used the AC for months over winter time. So I put another fuse in and it seemed ot start working again. I thought it was getting cold. It had felt it cool and assumed it was getting cold and turned it off but...

This may be a long shot but does anyone happen to have a list of all the PIDs including custom ones specific to the LS used in the 1st Gen that are readable through the OBDII using Torque Pro? It can read quite a few standard PIDs and a few Ford specific PIDs but I know many cars also use PIDs...

Hey Joe. You know how last week the pin 17 on c270d was giving me a faulty connection where it was killing my perimeter and PATS and immobilizing my car? And how it still gave me an intermittent problem for a day or two until I pulled it off and tightened the female spade connection in the lug...

The other day I had a problem with the perimeter alarm and PATS weren't working and immobilized my 02 Sport. Our resident expert Joe helped me figure it out. Thanks again, Joe. Upon going to work the next day which it had warmed up I discovered a new problem. In addition to my driver's door...

Anyone have any ideas for me? I have a Gen 1 02 LS v8 with 147K on it. Monday I went to work and I come out 4½ hours later at lunch as I usually do to move my car up front. I disable the alarm with the remote and notice the taillights flashed but the front turns didn't. Try to open the door but...

Ok. had a higher pitched rattle quite bad coming from the front on bot sides over even small bumps in the road which sounded a lot like this... So I was told by a mechanic who has worked on more than a few of thes and he thought it was in the strut. So I got some good condition used strut...

If you take a pry bar and put it in between the front lower control arm bushing and where it mounts on the frame, how much movement would you get if the bushing is still good? I'm guessing pretty much none, right? Seems mine move like maybe a ¼ inch or so. I replaced the struts and the rattle I...

The "strut plates" apparently have gone bad on my 02 Sport according to the mechanic and it doesn't surprise me since the struts are the only part of the front supension that haven't been replaced. I've read on here that Monroes are useless. I was thinking about getting KYBs. But want to know is...

I know these Jag v8s in our cars run on the hot side (which I'm not a fan of) but does anyone elses car run cooler in hot weather when the AC is on as opposed to when it's off? Today it was 85° here and I usually have a somewhat heavy foot. With the AC off it wanted to go north of 212° but with...

Does anyone know where I can find an image of a clearly labeled circuit using relays and diodes to let the low beams and/or fog lights stay on when I turn the high beams on? Google turns up lots of schematics for all kinds of cars but I don't know which I should choose that will work on LSes.

I got one of the factory made/dealer installed rear wings a couple months ago but unfortunately it didn't have the mounting hardware with it. I can see nut shaped depressions in the pedestal mounts for it but no nuts in it. I'm wondering how I should install it. Is there somewhere I can get a...

Well I got the Android head unit to power the subwoofer and center image amps and once I figured out some of the DSP settings in the unit it sounded damn good. Until the subwoofers let go. I guess being 18 years old the foam surrounds on them called it quits. So I got new surrounds to put on...

Can anyone tell me how these marker lights come out so I can replace the bulbs in mine? It doesn't show how in the shop manuals. I have the 02 Premium Sport. I'm hoping I don't have to pull the headlights and more or unbolt the wheel wells.
