1986 Mark VII We're in NORTHERN Nevada; it's a California car whose brakes decided to quit (pulling into a parking space, thank God), and I'm a middle-aged female with virtually no mechanical knowledge and even less cash. This car has probably less than 50,000 miles (had to replace the...

Send it to the yard? OHMGosh, never!! It's got too much useable stuff still, and it's still very pretty. I'm just not a mechanic, nor do I have a mechanic type in my life...'cept for you... ;-) Take care, :-) rosemary

Thanks, but this is the second shop in three months. The first shop was able to locate a switch, but it didn't work either. I'm shopping for a Toyota 4Runner...the Mark's on reno.craigslist. I really do appreciate your input! :)

Mark VII pressure switch So, is this the switch that nobody is able to locate to get my '86 driveable again? If so, I will be putting my car on e-bay... Thanks!

grammer/punctuation lol...and only 1 comma and 1 period for breathing purposes! :-) rosemary

Thanks, everyone! The guy at the wrecking yard can get me a tail light "tomorrow" for $75. That sounded a bit high, so am shopping... As for the trunk pulldown/latch thingie, I'll give all your suggestions to my shop tomorrow, when I take 'er in for the suspension changeout (UPS just...

Mybad, ND4SPDLSC... I just re-read your post, and it makes more sense. Sorry for the previous post, showing off my ignorance... When it gets to the shop on Wednesday, I'll have my guy explore it. Hope your Monday goes well, :-)

Thanks for your time, ND4SPDLSC, once again! Regarding the trunk pulldown, the motor tries and tries to work, the u-shaped piece that should be pulled down doesn't move. As I said, I disconnected the motor... Thanks for your comments on the tail light lens also. If the wrecking guy...

Thanks for your time, ND4SPDLSC, but...you are talking with a 50-year-old female who has just had not one, but two spine surgeries. I am not only not about to lay around my driveway with a wrench and not even the basic mechanical skills you indicate, I cannot. The other - if you will -...

Have been reading and reading...haven't found anyone else with this question. Apparently, I've hyperextended my trunk pulldown. The motor wants to work, so I disconnected it. Can this be fixed, or does the entire assembly need to be replaced? Also, a local wrecking yard person told me I...

1986 Mark VII Suspension Am awaiting the spring replacement kit (from Strutmasters) for my air shocks and read this thread to see whether I've made the right decision. (I'm a girl, so I don't want to have to deal with these air shock things again!) When you say "replace the shocks and...
