Replying to: bonniesboytoy (Aug 16, 2008 4:20 pm) There are 2 heater control vavles in the system - driver and pass. I would suggest a look at pr replacement of the passenger HCV may lead to a resolution. It may be sticky. Good luck.

Replying to: finicle (May 01, 2006 1:50 pm) Same problem... Tire blow out on freeway. AAA not able to change tire and the factory trunk tool not work.. Firestone quoted a price of 5 bucks each or 100 for all tires... Online parts places sell 20 for 90 bucks plus 8 for shipping.. Firestone said they were 19mm lug nuts but used a 20 mm socket...
#117 of 120 Jack up & replace rear under-bumper skirt by ptrodriguez Sep 20, 2009 (9:54 am)
Hi I'm Patrick, I want to jack up my Lincoln LS V8, so I can change the skirt that attaches to the frame & under the rear bumper.   My wife was in a spinout on the freeway near Dallas. The car in the far right lane moved to the center of three lanes while she was moving from the left lane to the same center lane. She never saw the slower car moving to the center while she checked her blind spot. She turned her head to the front just in time to see she was going to hit the back of the other car. She swerved hard left to avoid the much slower car and succeeded in doing so, but she over-corrected and turned the wheel hard right and created the spin that took her across three lanes and into the grassy swale between the feeder road and the main lanes. She should have flipped her car since she was moving at better than 65 mph. The car, even though she over-corrected the second time, probably saved her from flipping several times. Glad she wasn't driving the Expedition. I think the car saved her life.   Long story short-er? The dealer that made all her repairs never noticed the grass hanging under her rear bumper and the subsequent ripped straps that hold this "skirt" to the frame. I told them that 3 weeks was long enough for them to notice this and fix it, "Ship the thing to me and I'll put the damn thing on." They had over 3 weeks and made several thousand dollars repairing/rebuilding the front of the car... radiator...fog lamps, etc.    I do all my car work alone, so jack stands in the right places will help a lot...   Thanks for your time, Sincerely,   Frustrated but safe.
