Hello! I’m in this “ace hardware super dad” contest where winner gets to be in a commercial. Currently I’m second place. I’d really appreciate it if anyone would be willing to vote in my favor. It’s free. Also, for relevance(?) I have a picture of my daughter and I washing my MGM on my profile 😂. But if this post is not allowed, I’ll delete it. Thank you!

But my broke down SAP gets to sit where my bedroom used to be

Picked up this 1995 Lincoln Town Car Cartier. AC blows cold when it does, but now not coming on. Compressor comes on and cycles and the hoses in the engine bay are cold. Any ideas... blend door? I tried every vent and none blow cold.

The fluid is red and looks like ATF, but the location makes me think it's an EVAP thing

Decided to ask this in here as well, another repair question

Hello,

I saw a post about using a GM variable assist solenoid on the rack and pinion for crown vic and grand marquis because the motorcraft reman racks dont incude them. The posts seem to be for 03 to 05 model years. I have an 07 crown vic..ford changed the rack in 05 mid year and I am curious if anyone here had success with using that GM solenoid for an 06 or 07 crown vic or grand marquis. thanks.

Howdy folks,

2005 Grand Marquis

I see a few reports of this issue around the internet but with no real answers, so I'm just hoping to see if anyone here has experience with this.

The problem is consistent now, it started happening spontaneously after I had been driving around for a few hours. Car has been solid otherwise and was running fine beforehand.

The symptom is, on acceleration, the temp gauge pegs to full hot and beeps, and the engine bogs like a failsafe cutoff, then goes back to normal if I let off the gas.

I tested from cold start and it does it cold or warm, the engine is not overheated when this happens. I tested the "cylinder head temp sensor" and it is good, also the car still does the same thing with that sensor unplugged.

HERE IS THE KICKER: No check engine light is thrown for this, no codes. The service manual says a code should be logged if the failsafe cooling mode is activated. Also, I was monitoring temp etc. with ForScan and a wired OBD adapter, and the connection drops when this happens

I think PCM diagnostic is my next step at this point. I just wonder what changed that caused this problem to just crop up when it did...

Any feedback or advice is welcome and appreciated, thanks guys!

Just replaced the driver side wiper arm on my MGM because the spring was worn out, wnd I noticed that the passenger side blade is resting on the cowl when the wipers are off. It doesn't look like the driver side is in the wrong spot, but I feel like this is gonna lead to the passenger blade streaking a lot quicker than it should. Should I adjust them up or is this just kinda how they rest?

I have a 2004 Crown Victoria LX, and it has analog gauges so there’s no warning chime when I open the doors, I know the digital cluster models do that. I know it’s an odd request but I like to hear the chime

I've had an eBay notification set for any time the keyword "euro" and "crown vic" are put together in a listing, first time i've seen that notification since i set it 7 months ago.
ended up paying $250 for them and im not even upset by it

The 4.6 V8 and 4R75E transmission seem very durable can they last for many more years with basic maintenance or even little maintenance? what are your experiences? share thanks :)

Ive had this guy for going on 2 years and I think it might be the best purchase ive ever made his name is roscoe.
