    I have been gone for a while, now I'm back!

    I sold my last Mark VIII about 3 years ago. When you have a reputation for loving Lincolns people don't forget that. A week ago I received a call from a previous employee giving me a name and number of a man who wanted to sell his Mark. Needless to say I went, I saw, i bought. The man and...

    This has got me worried

    My 98 coupe (not LSC) has developed this problem. First off the transmission shifts correctly under normal throttle, but from a roll (20 mph or so) WOT the rpm will jump up to 4000 and the car will not accelerate, almost acting like it is in neutral. Back off the throttle and everything...

    VRCM Module

    I think my VRCM Module gave up the ghost today. Started up the car and moved it back in the driveway, shut it off and smelled a burning rubber smell. Raised the hood and saw white smoke coming from in front of the radiator. Tried to start the car and move it away from the house (after...
