Hello folks!
I'm back to offer up the mark VIII. I am listing this for my father. Some of you have helped me get this car looking beautiful as I maintained it for him. Some may remember when I found factory fresh Mark VII LSC CE floor mats, it brought my father joy. This car was originally...
It fit together like any other car with a check valve. The only difference was this one was a little longer. *googles pictures*
This:
Fits into the grommet:
^ ^ ^ ^ And the end result is the picture from my first post. ^ ^ ^ ^
The rubber grommet need to be squished a little to...
I want to thank todd for getting the part over to me so quickly.
For those of you reading this thread in the future, there are two solutions
One, is the get the original check value. The longer section is simply extending the hose away from a line that sits above it. HOWEVER the part with...
Mystery kinda solved. They took a look in the trans and said someone paid good money to put a shift kit in there. That also explains the downshifting.
But why would that cause the slamming when putting it into reverse and drive?
Is there any way to tone that down just for that? I can live with...
So I finally got the transmission mount replaced.
It did not improve the transmission slamming into gear when I put it into Reverse and Drive. Back to square 1.
The malfunction was that it broke and the replacement pieces were different. (see picture)
Wawful, I understand what you're saying. That makes sense. But the piece that goes into the grommet has to have those little ridges to keep it from popping out, and I don't remember seeing anything like...
Bump
Found the correct grommet at the junkyard, and it works well enough with the 80190 check valve. But the neck is too short, i still hear air whistling. I'm concerned it may come out while I'm driving.
If anyone has a spare one or knows how to find one online let me know. So far no luck on...
Hmmm I think it could work too, even tho the neck that holds the grommet is a lot shorter, it seemed to hold it in place.
Unfortunately the local parts store did not have the correct size grommet. I sent my little bro on and adventure today while I am at work to a bigger junkyard (Friendship...
the parts store did not have a brake check valve with a long enough neck. Tho they did the grommets, they were too big or too small.
Looks like I'm getting a ride to work tomorrow from someone
It came with no grommets. I'm going to check if Napa may have one when my wife gets home. I think this may be specific to the mark viii 97 and 98 because even the 93 mark I saw at the junkyard and the continentals had that smaller part.
The one from advanced is a smaller piece....
it was brittle and snapped when i was takingnit off. The rubber boot was already broken. I cant drive to work without this. Does anyone have this piece? It has a rubber boot around it, that's why the neck is longer
Okay let me know when you get those two.
What color is your interior? I am looking for the armrest lid. I got the European gray on dark gray on my 98 LSC CE, but I seem to remember they only offered that on the CE, tho I could be wrong.
Ah yes, I was just using "firewall" to describe the location for lack of a better term. I'll go back and edit my posts so anyone looking at this thread doesn't get incorrect info.
Alright I'll get that part, thanks Roadboss.
