Replying to: 97_twncar_ownr (Apr 03, 2009 12:22 pm) When any vehicle has sat for long periods with 'old' gas in the tank, there is the high possibility of condensation forming which leads to H2O in the tank as well as gas. 'StaBil' is a product used by mariners for dealing with this situation in their boats. 'Heet' is a product used by drivers in frigid areas to make the H2O miscible with gas. These two products are readily available in auto part stores.   Use as directed with the remaining fuel that is in the tank.   There is an electric fuel pump in the sump of the gas tank. If you drain the tank, don't let Air get to the pump for the seals will be damaged.

#854 of 915 Lincoln town car air suspension by caddells Apr 04, 2009 (8:07 am)
My1992 town car air suspension is very bad. (leaking) Suggested by several town car owners to switch to regular strut/spring suspension. Any pro or con comments? Replies to this message: nwraaa (Apr 14, 2009 8:08 am)
#855 of 915 Lincoln Sagging Door by nwraaa Apr 14, 2009 (7:57 am)
I want to replace the door hinges on a 1996 Lincoln Town Car. In addition to the four bolts that hold the hinges, there is a non headed bolt that has a nut on the inside of the car. Does anyone know how to get to nuts that appear to be inside the car?

Replying to: caddells (Apr 04, 2009 8:07 am) I would not switch to coil springs. I have replaced several sets of air springs, solenoids at the air springs, compressors, and the leveling adjusters on 1990 through 1997 Town Cars. If you can change the transmission fluid, you can probably change the springs, if they are the problem.
#857 of 915 howl from engine compartment by hugo7 Apr 28, 2009 (2:31 pm)
I have a 2000 TC that has around 90,000 mi on it. The problem i'm having is when you start the car it has a howling noise and when you give it gas it goes away but will keep coming back after a few seconds. Its also doing it while i'm driving, I give it gas and again it stops but will do it again in a few seconds. This would not bother me except that its real loud and embarasing sitting at a light.I was told at a gas station that its the smog pump is this true and is it something I can fix myself ? thanks Replies to this message: nwraaa (May 01, 2009 11:52 am) euphonium (May 01, 2009 1:13 pm)
#858 of 915 Howl From Engine Compartment [hugo7] by nwraaa May 01, 2009 (11:52 am)
Replying to: hugo7 (Apr 28, 2009 2:31 pm) The car does not have a smog pump. The howl may be coming from one of the fans. The car has an electric fan and a clutch driven fan. Have you tried to find the howl with the hood up and the engine running? With the hood up and the engine running, you should be able to duplicate the noise by increasing the engine speed with the accelerator cable.

Replying to: hugo7 (Apr 28, 2009 2:31 pm) Our '94 will sometimes sound like a ship's fog horn, especially on a cold startup.   This happened 6 years ago and the Lincoln tech said it was the Idle air bypass valve resonating.   After the engine warms up, it goes away so I live with it.
