    Timing/no compression question

When cranking, it sounds like it has zero compression. So I removed the valve covers to check timing components and...

    Weird overheating problem

    That’s a good question I’m not sure, just off the top of my head I think dorman, yep followed the procedure, one would think that an air bubble would eventually work its way up to the degas or bleed valve though right? Do you think starting from scratch with a coolant flush would be a good...

    Lincoln Town Car 1996 - snowy owl

    Not a bad find, I have never driven my town car in snow or ice seeing that texas doesn't get much of it.
