Working great today! It was raining hard yesterday morning and since I was at work my van was outside in it. Maybe that caused it. Denise ... From: Vitally...
Open the hood and check the rubber seal that seals the back of the hood to the cowl top. Charlie's was loose and allowing water to drip on the spark plugs...
No -- they are all loose not just mine, as the gasket is only attached with the plastic push pins and the hood does not push against the gasket hard enough to...
And be sure not damage the plastic parts when removing them as some have done. There is two files on F/I part numbers, one is mine and one is Gerrys. The P/Ns...
Calvin,  Ok. I think we are down to 3 things. 1) Adjust or replace the TPS sensor on the throttle body - that is the major influence on upshifting since it...
Douglas: As for the engine missing when it rains, both our vans '96 GS and '99 Estate had this problem. It was caused by the insulation on the spark plug wires...
Denise: No mater how any water gets on the spark plug wires if the engine misses out after it does means you need to replace the spark plug wires. Both of our...
Even new wires won't help when the plug wells have 1 inch of water in them. Take a look with a flashlight down the wells and you will see rust/water marks on...
A red light over the temperature gauge is flashing for the first time. Looks like an air bag symbol. The cover over the front passenger air bag seems a bit...
This is going to sound outrageous, but it worked and the bucking, shuddering, hesitation and shaking of my grandson's Crown Victoria stopped completely. Brief...
Check the wiring connection first. Then we can go into getting the failure code if necessary to narrow it down. There is a procedure in the owner manual. ...
I made some minor changes and bold highlights to the document. Nothing really new just an emphasis change. as a reminder-- The front sensor can alter the fuel...
One added comment I forgot to add was that the LEARN mode is ONLY associated with the front o2 sensor feeding oxygen data to the computer. No other LEARN mode...
I've got a 2002 that I just replaced the blower motor and resistor on. Until the motor quit, it was pushing out plenty of air. The motor can be heard changing...
More on the water problem. The clips that attach the rear hood gasket to the body break. The gasket isn’t in the right position so water that runs down the...
Russ: Check the wiring on the new motor there have been a few cases of the wires being reversed in the connector and the motor running in reverse to what it...
After checking Randy's recommendations, check to sure you don't have a cabin air pollen filter that has never been changed on the air intake under the cowl...
Freed, Â They do come with the gasket. Weatherstrip adhesive should work with the clips or screws. Gerry ________________________________ From: Freed...
Is it a Ford or Nissan or aftermarket motor? We tear down a lot of aftermarket parts and some are really scary, a few a just as good as OEM. Every blower...
Whatever technique you use, pour a few glasses of water all along the hood/gasket area and then see ifs it fixed so water stops running down into the back plug...
I got a 1996 mercury villager that is running lean, i replaced the bpt valve, bpt hose, carbon cleaned egr, front o2 sensor had a broken wire and was soldered...
Everyone thank you for your suggestions! I will work on this this weekend. I was a bit leary about putting a lot of injector cleaner in my gas tank at one...
First Check timing at idle. Is KS code hard or pending? If timing is at 15BTDC and KS code is pending ignore both and go to O2 sensor. Re front O2 sensor- if...
KS code is pending, ignition timing set at 17, friend who is smog tech says no need to change as 2 degrees won't make big difference. front o2 sensor and back...
I agree with your tech 100% on timing, etc. The front O2 sensor normally should still be good, however some people have had problems with non-oem sensors. Hi...
