    Lincoln LS Rocker Panel Moulding Retainer Push Washers

    Am looking for the part numbers, some sort of link to the push washers for the LS rocker panel mouldings behind the Passanger (or drivers) side front wheel wells. There appears to be 2 different sizes that are very specific to the hole in the body, head to retain the trim piece. One goes on...

    Gen 1 LS Climate control on full heat most of the time

    2000 lincoln ls with replaced dccv last summer. That unit was at the end of its life when removed. The car is in the upper mid west vis miami so this issue may be more noticeable in spring here. Last summer there where cronic problems with the climate control randomly blasting hot air into...

    2000 gen 1 parasite battery drain

    Ok, so far alternator positive disconnected it is at .07 still. that appears to be just a hair over the .050, nice if it was at .025. there is some complicated procedure listed online for this, TSB 02-9-5, looks like it involves testers, who knows what. Anything that may come to mind that...

    2000 gen 1 parasite battery drain

    When you said sleep mode needs to be blow 50ma, did you mean .050, lincoln ls usually .020-.030, vs .002-003? It seems like .002 may be 2ma not 20? thanks

    2000 gen 1 parasite battery drain

    The reading after sleep mode may be engaged is .07 which is an improvement however not .003-.005. Am using the 5 amp com port. If changing that to the smaller port, wonder if 2amps would blow the meter considering I did see that before removing trunk light bulb. Maybe remove alternator cable...

    2000 gen 1 parasite battery drain

    Thought the sleep mode impacted the test. Wondering if it would draw .75 for 30 min? I am checking again after 30min today, or 45 min. Pulled fuses in rear dist box, pass kick panel, front dist box. I was looking or an amperage drop based on the .75. The only drop I obtained was...

    2000 gen 1 parasite battery drain

    Have a .74 amp reading between negative on battery cable and the negative terminal on the battery reading a meter. I am being extra cautious as I have a new battery. Thought .75 amps of draw on a battery after the car generally goes to sleep is quite a bit? What should this care usually draw...

    LS First Gen Rough Idle

    gen 1, title in post. think they are motorcraft platinum, cannot find the doc right now, they are gapped. though possible, think it would be odd that bosch may not work but recall motorcraft. the plugs are a basic platinum. this is mainly with it idling, brake on, at a stop sign. noticed an...

    Options for Lincoln LS toe Link / Rear Adjustment Link / Torque Link 6W4Z-5B551-AA 1W4Z5B551AA

    Sourced these a while ago. Cannot recall all the details. Purchased 00-02 Jaguar vendor. Do not have info in front of me. The poly bushings are blue. They fit fine. The original one on the left was making noise, the steering was pulling to the left. The bad link was pushing the tracking...

    ntdeac, on the right side, no matter what position I put the chain on the exhaust cam, it produces slac in the chain on the top side of the 2 sprockets. the tensioner is facing down, I want the chain slack on that side. when trying different chain positions on the exhaust sprocket, the flats...

    ntdeac New LVC Member, yeh, used the straight edge method. now understand full timing chain r and r. think, on the main chains, there are dots to line up at the bottom. 1 has to be tdc. in this case, main chain and tensioners look good. looks like the timing came in well, had to remove the...

    Lincoln Ls Timing Chain Tensioner Swap

    Lincoln Ls Timing Chain Tensioner Swap

    sorry, do not understand what you are saying? are you talking about removing the sprockets? are you saying someone has a tool they could loan? My intention was not to remove the sprockets but that would be easier than removing the cam. One I have installed, using the marks, think it is dead...
