1989 Signature Series

"is knowledge you seek"...
yes i do.
i found this site last week after trying to solve the many erratic issues with the latest addition to my long list of vehicles from the Ford family; a gold 1989 Signature Series.
this car took the place of our 1990 grand marquis (the big comfy couch my kids called it) and at $900.00 i thought it was a good deal untill i drove it for a while; i always drive our latest addition to the transportation pool so mom does not have issues while out shopping or running around and i started noticing strange things...
1)some days the rear airs up fine and the front does not at all - it's kinda like being on a pogo stick. the back used to do this untill the solenoid contacts were cleaned
2)power seats will not tilt now
3)EATC blower switch now only works on high setting and three of the buttons broke off on the ends - they just fell apart...
4)digital cluster sometimes goes totaly blank and taunts me with warning chimes
DING.....DING.....DING.....
5)in park it sometimes flashes from O to 1 mph
and much more...
the cluster tune up will be the first logical step in the strange gauge behavior and if i grow tired of the roller coaster air ride adventures i can always change out the air struts for taurus/sable struts. i have a connection at a salvage yard and have been told that if i use thunderbind springs it will give a better ride since the lincoln is a heavier car.
this is a bit long for a Hello and i will ask more questions later
i have found answers to most of my questions here and i look forward to being a member here.
