I thought that the only thing I had not replaced in this car was the motor and transmission, but I discovered that it was eating tires as fast as I could buy a new set, more so on the back than the front. Turns out all the bushings in the control arms are either gone or going and she can't be...

So I finally retired in November after 35 years in law enforcement. Then I was made constable in my county. For those of you from other states, constables in our state do everything regular cops do, with the addition of having to serve papers in their respective precincts, and we are the only...

After replacing the fuel pumps, pressure sensor, filter, TPS, EGR, and PCM she is rumbling down the road again, and starts no matter what the temp. In the course it was also found that the many tune ups I had done, were half assed where evidently some of the plugs are hard to reach and thus were...

So after all that the LS and I have been through with failure to start once cold, it apparently comes down to a part, the TPS, and 468 more of my hard earned dollars. So now, I have a new fuel pump, fuel pressure sensor, fuel filter and finally a TPS. Now according to them, if this is not it, I...

A car was only cool with 2 doors. I know you new humans think four is cool but in the day there was only one car with four doors that was cool, and that was a 68/69 T-bird who had taken a page from the Lincolns of old and used suicide doors. It also had the 429 Thunderjet to back it up. The only...

Disaster. Pump came complete with long hoses that go into fuel tank and socks and all kinds of crap. Back seat removal, first problem a seat belt that would not release, checked the forum and found nothing. SO pried on it and broke it. VIOLA it is released. Found link on fuel pump removal with...

It is getting cooler and my baby wants me to turn the key two times each about 20 turns to crank, well not this year. I involved a fuel pressure gauge this time. As I turn to "on" I get a jump to between 60 and 70 but it immediately drops to zero. Does not hold pressure. Sounds under normal...

Ok, so I take my LS to a mechanic I have used for about a year. I tell him of the fuel pump that I have to double ignition turn to load up enough to stay running at temps below 50. He agrees the fuel pump is the culprit. It takes about a week and I call to check on my car and he says I need to...

We live on a 52 acre farm in Texas. Took the LS in for service a week ago. Had to call the insurance company because rats got into the wiring. Have no idea what the extent of the damage is or how long before it will be fixed. The insurance company is on board, thank God and says that the car...

How do you know which one is bad, and where can i get them. Tired of paying someone else to do this

Going down the road and I hear a noise. I rolled the window down and it was awful. I pulled over, pushed down on the back of the car and out from under the drivers side rear wheel it was squeaking like someone pounding a nubian mattress monster on an old hospital wrought iron bed. Took it to the...

1. wife washed keyfob it no longer works even after dismantling and drying out. Bought a new one but it never worked. 2. Never had the door code and the myths of the sticker somewhere on the car are BS. Is there a way to reprogram? 3. Sometimes I leave the keys in the ignition and shut the...

2004 V8 bought it with 79000 three years ago. Ok, so at 80000 I replaced all the coils and boots. Now at 165000 it appears to need it again, missing like crazy especially on acceleration. Oil changes, tune ups and premium fuel religiously. No smoke or leaks, just did cooling system, but I drive...

This was the result of the last engine analisys done yesterday. Started hesitating while in foot to floor mode. Took it in and code was "PCM bad". What am I looking at here? The mechanic could only shake his head as one would when they tell you a loved one has only six months to live.

Been to the mechanic, the best he could do was change the battery which the car needed, but did not fix the problem. On very cold mornings, the car will not start without a shot of starting fluid to the air box. Sometimes many shots. Oh and you must turn the ignition completely off other wise it...

Here is a set I think would look good but I don't know if the listed sizes will fit. What do you guys think? http://customwheel.com/custom_wheels/product_info.php?cPath=222&products_id=1176

What constitutes generation one, two etc?

This thing is really starting to tick me off. Ok so now, got it to turn over and it started but chugged like it only had one cylinder. Ran for a couple seconds and then just turned. It did sit up a couple weeks, but the only issue was a small overheating problem. Other than that it ran like a...

An old guy ran over my bike in a parking lot a few years ago. Totaled it, not hard to do with a Harley. Anyway his insurance company gave me a loaner for a month and it was a brand new 2004 Lincoln LS V8, black with gray leather. It ran and sounded great. I vowed I would have one. I do and for...

So if you are bothered by people asking for help just ignore me, the rest of you, what after market exhaust do you get to make it heard but not obnoxious? 2004 V8 in that god awful hard to keep Pearl
