 Nice, clean 2002 Lincoln LS 3.9 L V8.  NEEDS FUEL PUMP.  LOW RESERVE!  Top of the line sports model.  Every option.  Power moonroof, power everything, dual zone A/C, 6 disc CD changer, 17" wheels.  I bought this car about a year ago from a dealer in Grand Prairie, TX.  I was commuting back and forth to Livingston, TX weekly.  During one of the trips, the thermostat housing blew.  I had it towed back home to Livingston, and found that it was not unusual for this model.  The part appears to be metal, but it is plastic.  As suggested on the internet, I replaced it with the aluminum Jaguar part (same engine in Jaguar 4.0 and Thunderbird).  After replacing the part, I test drove the car to town (2 miles) and found that the OTHER cooling tube had a crack in it as well.  This is a pressurized system, so that had to be replaced also (it has been replaced).  I ordered the part, but then had to leave the country for 6 months.  When I returned, the car would turn over, but not start.  I tried starting fluid and it started right up but would not stay running.  I started process of elimination.  I checked out the fuses (fuel pump fuse was blown).  I replaced the fuse, and it did not blow again, but still no go.  I swapped out all the relays and diodes that handle the fuel pump. No go.  Then I replaced the fuel filter.  At that time I tested for fuel and verified that no fuel was getting to the engine.  Someone came and checked the computer codes, and it said bad fuel pump driver control module. On this car, the DCM is located inside the rear electronics module, so I replaced that also.  No go.  I verified that power was getting to the fuel pump connector, so I finally pulled the fuel pump.  The fuel lines did not come out as they were supposed to, so I had to cut them.  I had located a fuel pump at a wrecking yard in Lufkin, but when it was pulled, it was badly rusted and unusable.  I have since purchased a new fuel pump (only), but it has not been installed and the cartridge that the pump fits into may need to be replaced, or parts of the two I have combined into one.  So as it stands right now, the fuel pump is out of the car, I have an EXTRA rear electronic module, two fuel pumps in various states of disrepair plus a new pump.  I purchased a second set of fuel lines and have snaked them into position, but they kinked at various times during the install and may need to be replaced again also. The car also has two new front tires.  The fuel pumps (there are two) are easily accessible under the rear seat.  I don't have the time or money to continue with this saga at the moment.  I've done most of the work, and have well over $5,000 in the car, but the high bidder can bring a car trailer and can get it out of here.  Clean title in my name.  Inspection sticker expired the end of February, tags are good through the end of April.  161,000 miles.  Feel free to request additional pictures of any part of the vehicle.  There are a few door dings, some cracking of the drivers seat, a scrape to the area around the rear left tail light (which was replaced), and a few evidences of smokers in the car.  I have the original manuals for the car, and it appears to have had only one or two owners.  See the vehicle history report for verification.  I work 12 hour days and just don't have time for this.  Come and get it!  Good Bidding!  $500 deposit due within 24 hours of winning the auction, and full payment due within 7 days at time of pickup.  VEHICLE SOLD AS-IS.  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, ASK THEM BEFORE BIDDING!

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.

Lincoln MKX Concept goes for the gold in Beijing

Sun, 20 Apr 2014

We've now seen the Lincoln MKX Concept in the metal, and we've shot it with the lenses of our own DSLR cameras. And we have to say, our opinion of the concept's design language has improved over our initial reaction. Yes, it's clear that this MKX shares its underpinnings with those of the Ford Edge Concept that we saw in LA, but the changes made by Lincoln stylists are a welcome departure from the angular lines of its corporate cousin from The Blue Oval.
We like the subtlety of the MKX Concept's front fascia, and the lighting elements both front and rear lend a luxurious quality to the crossover's typical two-box proportions. When combined with the smaller MKC that was shown in production form late last year, it's clear to see that Lincoln has a specific design direction that at least seems visually capable of setting it apart from the Ford models with which the brand shares its platforms. Here's hoping there are some Lincoln-specific upgrades underhood...
Have a look at our image gallery of live photos from Beijing above, reread the press release below, and feel free to let us know what you think.

Ford recalls 591,177 vehicles in four separate campaigns

Wed, Apr 29 2015

Ford is issuing recalls for a total of 591,177 vehicles worldwide, in four separate campaigns. The announcement comes just days after the discovery of door-latch problems in 390,000 of the automaker's cars. The largest of these new recalls covers 518,313 examples of the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ from the 2013-2015 model years, plus the 2015 Edge. Of these, 487,301 of are in the US and 31,012 are in Canada. For vehicles in cold-weather areas, the bolts that hold the steering gear motor can corrode and fracture. If this happens, it could cause the power steering to fail, but manual control would be retained. There are no reported accidents or injuries from this problem. To fix things, dealers will replace the bolts and seal them. The next campaign covers 50,157 examples of the 2014 Focus, Edge, Escape, and Transit Connect, plus the Fiesta from 2014 and 2015. Of these, 45,505 are in the US, 4,618 in Canada, and 34 in Mexico. All of them exhibit a problem with the fuel pump where the nickel plating can cause the part to seize and the engine to stall, if this occurs. (All of which sounds like recent problems with Nissan and BMW models.) According to Ford, there is one allegation of an accident from this problem. Dealers will replace the fuel delivery module to fix the problem. Ford is also recalling 22,616 units of the 2015 Lincoln MKZ because when the headlights are on, the parking lamps are brighter than they are allowed to be. The light could affect the vision of other drivers. This campaign includes 21,435 of them in the US, 1,066 in Canada and 115 in Mexico. There are no accidents or injuries from the issue, but Ford is updating the software to dim the lights on these sedans. Finally, Ford has a safety campaign for 91 examples of the 2015 F-150 because an underbody heat shield might not be properly installed or not present at all, which can be a fire risk. There are no reports of any actual accidents or fires, though. The affected pickups will have the parts replaced or added, as necessary after a dealer inspection. To see the specific build dates for the models affected by each of these campaigns, you can read about them in the press release below.
