    Transmission shifting like a baby

    1995 Mark VIII. So a couple of weeks ago I noticed my car was starting to shift like it was a stocker again. Until then it was a nice firm shift at partial throttle and a hard tire barkin shift at WOT. Now when I floor it the shift is soft just like it was before my dyno tune. Also it seems to...

    Project X

    So I just watched a movie called "Project X" today. It's probably not a movie for people over 40. But anyways in the movie there's a Gen 1 Mark VIII very visible in the background multiple times! I was so stoked!(yes I have an obsession) Too bad the thing gets torched in the movie though. :(

    I went to get an alignment today and got told "can't do it" and got a price quote of $1,162!!! Which was to replace the lower ball joints, inner tie rod ends and the bushings in the lower control arm. I politely declined and now I'm getting the parts myself. I already picked up inner and outer...

    Smoke

    So it was nice out today so I decide to take the MarkVIII for a cruise. Drive it about 5 miles or so and all is well. Then I stop at my step-dads for about 5mins and just left the car running. Come back and on my way out I pop in neutral and give it a nice rev and notice an ever so slight hint...

To do the rear cover you have...

    I've got a 95 Mark VIII, 175,00 miles, several mods etc. Anyway it's had this ticking for a long time. Pretty much since I bought the thing 3 years ago. It's always gone away after the car runs for about 10mins. I've used the various snake oils and they've helped... periodically. The noise...
