You are in the Ford Crown Victoria/Mercury Grand Marquis Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
Its a peach. I paid $9K for it last march with 65K miles. It has 92K now, the only issue was the battery that I replaced (with an Optima). It starts in -15 degrees after sitting outside for several days, and it rides and handles great. My previous car was a 96 GM. It had 3 of the power windows fail, it melted a hole in the intake manifold, and the heater core failed. It still runs with 195K miles, so maybe I shouldn't complain. But still, I hope my 2003 won't have those problems.

I have a 1994 MGM with 120k miles on it. It ran fine up until a month ago when it would surge as I accelerated. It did this for about a month then it just wouldnt start. I assumed it was the fuel pump so changed it and the filter out. The car ran again but still surges as I accelerate and just doesnt have the power it should. Now it wont start again, it just turns over and it almost 'feels' like it wants to start but wont. Is this a fuel problem or is there a sensor goofing me up? Any help appreciated!
