As it is difficult to sell a flimsy bumpered car, you will have to repair it before it is in saleable condition so you might just as well get the use of a decent looking bumper now and enjoy a better looking car.
 
As for the engine knocks, it may be that the mass air sensor needs replacing, however, if you are not losing acceleration power try a tankful of Premium gas.
 
If it still knocks on Premium, it isn't the quality of fuel, but something else.

94 Grand Marquis. by jsylvester

My 94 Grand Marquis with 118,000 miles is only worth about $1,500 tops, and everything works on it, and it runs great.
 
Engine knock on a car that old could be anything, since you don't know the maintenance done in the past. It is 12 years old now.

Thanks both of you. The mechanic advnanced the timings on the engine and put in some octane booster. I'll call the autobody shop to get a quote on that bumper.

THANK YOU...THANK YOU...THANK YOU...
 
It worked...I made sure to make good contact with the tune button, and, lo and behold, the CD changed from Disc 2 to Disc 3...you are a genius, somewhere along the lines of Henry Ford, Walter Chrysler, and Mr. Daimler...
 
I owe you one choc chip cookie...

LOL! No problem, and your dogs are safe ^_^. Now, if only Ford would put information like that in the owner's manual, it would be very helpful to everyone else (I can't believe that we're the only two to have this problem). Oh well, it makes it an adventure - go exploring in your own car

Light configuration on a 1992 Ford CV by eric25

Dear Forum Members,
 
I am trying to figure out how the lights work on a 1992 Ford Crown Vic and I appreciate any owner/knowledgeable person to help me. It is my understanding that there is no daytime running light on a 1992 Ford CV for US market. Also, it is possible to turn on the headlamp (low or high beams) with the contact in the on position, however, the park lights will not come on with the contact in the on position. Am I correct?
 
I appreciate any help,
 
Regards,
 
Eric

Can anyone give me some good recommendations for 225/60/16 tires for a 2001 Marquis? I want smoooooth and quiet. The car came with Goodyear LS which are getting noisy and harsh. Thanks.

Goodyear ComforTreds or TripleTreds, depending on the need for snow traction.
 
ComforTreds are designs for comfort, TripleTreds for better traction.

I really like the Michelin Energy LX4s on my CV. They strike me as a nice balance between handling and ride comfort. I have Cooper Lifeliner IIs on my '85, but I have not been impressed with their wear.
