My first reaction would be to remove it, dry it out, do some wire brush roughing, and seal it with silicone.

Almost all of my driving is "super highway" 70-75 mph with few curves, running 1/2 hour stints. My display says 21.2 MPG. Plugs have 100K+ on them. (Yes,. I'll change them soon). TIP: A nice way to check for a vacuum leak is with an UN-LIT propane torch. Idle the engine and pump that gas full...

Mechanically speaking,... how can anyone tell the condition of an engine by looking at it? I once bought an 88 T-Bird, knowing it had a blown engine. Engine looked fine. Don't let your emotions guide your judgments. Sounds good, but buy it on condition that it at least works satisfactory. A...

Replacements?? I thought there were no replacements. Please enlighten me!!!

I could be wrong,.. but doesn't the keyless entry just do what it does? I don't see how it can naturally open both doors, but I'm sure you can do so if you find the right wire and run a jumper.

If you never did one before,.. don't tighten it down too much. I found that out the hard way back in 78. Just enough to seal, then maybe another 1/4 turn. Too much and you'll squash the gasket and it will leak. Sad,... I remember when ya' twisted off the vapor cap and just unbolted one.

Comical thing about the junk ones I once bought,............ They had all the factory Lincoln markings. Not that they were sold as nock-offs,... But they were apparently cast from molds that were made from arms gathered from a junk yard. A waiting lawsuit from Lincoln if they cared to go after...

I'm all ears here, cause' I have a problem too. Things work fine, until it rains or snows (great timing) then I get the fail warning. Thinking it's a bad connection, but never got around to looking for it. Must be the rear, because it's sure to happen after a snowy wheel spin.

Same problem with my 95. Radio didn't even need to be on. I pulled the fuse about 4 years ago, and that solved it.

May I ask: What dysfunction would compel you to do this replacement? I mean,.. you just don't do it because you're out of things to replace on the ol' Linc. I ask because I get this "sulfur blast when I "get on it" and I'm told that may be the cause. = I acknowledge that my friends advised me...

I bought some low priced items (junk) off the internet. Spent two weekends swapping the things out. Within one year, they were clunking like a taxi cab with 200K on em'. Don't make the same mistake. I then replaced them with factory Lincoln$$ and I've been good for some 40K, but why not,.. they...

I know my cars, mostly older ones,............ mostly. But I'm unfamiliar with this crossover tube. It may be what plagued me two years ago when on a "zero" degree morning, I started overheating while my reservoir had good unfrozen coolant. Please elaborate on the checking and causes. This means...

Driller, you speak knowledge but not answers,........ like the proverbial wise man on the hill. On bended knee, head bowed, I respectfully inquire'......... what will a performance chip do for me? <As I humbly waddle back on my knees>

I did the Strutmaster conversion and I like it. I don't understand what is meant by detrition. Ride is firmer and naturally better in the curves. I miss my SuperCoupes suspension, where you could turn it on and off.

What does a chip get you? I'm in the same boat?

Procrastinated too long, got too cold. Just handed over the bushings to my mechanic with a $275 card swipe. He did notify me of a broken left engine mount. That must be the weighty thump I get while pulling out sometimes. I'll just flip some plastic at that too. Just gettin' too old for the...

I get a "tingle" but the price is quite high. Though I understand the limited production. More off-site promotion needs to be done to get the thing down around $400. Sites like Ebay are ideal,... but how do you sell something you are still conceiving? I also get a woodie with the Lincoln-Star...

My car is slaved to be a soldier. At least till 2017 when the house is paid off. Snow, salt,... hazards,......... it don't complain, it does it's job, faces the elements without question. (not that I would expect a question,.. that would just be messed up on my part)

I think it must be eating it. At idle speed, it will naturally eat slower.

I think it has to be eating it. Higher RPM will eat at faster rate.
