Now it seems to start on the second try each time. Odd. Immediately after running it will start right up too, no problem. FlaOkie, I haven't checked the OBII yet, but did change keys since it has the PATS II theft system transponder setup. No help, same thing. Thought maybe the key's 'chip'...
Thank you! I'm in NC visiting our grandkids about 3 hours from home. Same issues today. Will do as you suggest when we get home Saturday & let you know. Hope it's something simple! THANKS again! Scott in SC
So far, eventually it does start. Could take a couple try's to a half dozen try's. Hot or cold it does it. Once, I gave it half throttle while trying to start and it fired right up. Could have been coincidence.
If it sits for a couple hours, same thing, it needs 2-3 try's to start.

Svets96, thanks for the link. My trip up to Charlotte & back yielded me 27.7 mpg which outperforms my other 'old' '99 that got 25.2 hwy. The car had a fresh oil change when I got it, but will switch to synthetic like my other cars @ next oil change. Maybe it will go up even further!
I'm gonna...

Some PICS of my 'NEW' '99!
Here's some shots. Car is immaculate, 106k miles, not a blemish, all original! Loved it!
The 'Air Blocker' or Shutter is directly behind the grille between it and the radiator, just one flap that raises up & down on a hinged bracket. It's 'white' too. I'll try...
At 100K miles, I almost thought I was buying a NEW Lincoln!!! Original & in unbelievable condition! This is my 2nd '99 and I am elated! There's nothing finer than these beautiful cars!
I just bought my 'new' 99 continental that is absolutely like new & pristine! I'm so happy! I previously owned a 99 continental BUT this one is absolutely gorgeous & I love it!!!
One 'option' it has is a radiator cold weather 'Air Shutter' system mounted directly in front of the radiator &...
