09-16-2021, 11:09 AMI didn't realize that was the same Mark VI, but at one time I probably knew it. I also really like the early 90's Brougham's and the Fleetwood's your...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-16-2021, 02:23 AMThe 80-81 Town coupe would be a start for the Marauder swap, I kind of like that idea.18 replies | 241 view(s)

09-16-2021, 01:01 AMIn the early 90’s my grandfather bought an 84 ranger with a clapped out 2.8 in it. He and my uncle built a 302 and put it in that truck. I’ve...18 replies | 241 view(s)

09-15-2021, 11:16 AMYeah and ya gotta figure that most of those Mark VI's have been crushed or have rotted away by now. Yours is now rather rare. I've never seen...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-15-2021, 11:12 AMFor certain vehicles they offer another version of the report that's more detailed and cost a bit more. I'm pretty sure the deluxe report that I got...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-14-2021, 07:28 PMThis reminds me of a local guy who was selling a ‘95 Vic with the rare 427 big block and 550hp. The ad showed a stock 4.6, I messaged him and...4 replies | 120 view(s)

09-14-2021, 05:28 PMI’m not 100% sure how the reports break down. I thought it was identical cars, my dads Mustang came back as 1/6, and I’ve seen quite a few 1/1...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-14-2021, 12:43 PMYes those are wheel covers. Did they ever make a slick top Town Car? From what I can find all Mark VI's got some kind of vinyl top. Or by poverty...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-14-2021, 11:15 AMI call it the poverty cluster because the digi dash was standard on the Mark VI and whoever ordered this car deleted it for a credit. I believe it...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-12-2021, 05:28 PMYes. I don’t think there’s much chance of getting it to close though, not really intending to drive it in any cold weather anyway. It’s going into...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-12-2021, 10:36 AMWhen the flap is open it pulls air through the intake tube running to the front of the car, I believe it still also pulls some heated air from the...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-12-2021, 06:40 AMIt appears that the little flap in the air cleaner assembly is staying open all the time. Probably not worth the time and expense to try to fix. I...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-11-2021, 09:24 PMInteresting. I’m not 100% sure how the system works on EEC-III CFI. I know the manifold end is a little loose on my Mark VI, I didn’t really get in...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-11-2021, 06:55 PMI replaced the pre heater hose from the exhaust manifold to the intake today for all the good it may do. I somehow doubt the vacuum actuated...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-07-2021, 02:15 PMI don’t intend to mutilate anything. If I add in a valve I’ll add it at the end of the line that currently goes to the actuator solenoid. That way it...8 replies | 267 view(s)

09-07-2021, 12:04 PMYeah it's in the same place as on the later boxes, you can stick your fingers up under the edge of the dash pad and feel the opening. Now that I have...189 replies | 9695 view(s)

09-07-2021, 12:02 PMThanks for the info. If I bridge those particular lines I'll be on cold air only unless I put the back correct? I'm currently on cold air only and at...8 replies | 267 view(s)

09-05-2021, 07:43 AMI’m pretty sure it’s the temp sensor, the fan works fine, AC works fine but is of course stuck on full cold. I’m thinking about splicing into...8 replies | 267 view(s)

09-03-2021, 11:33 PMSo after finding out last night that my 83 Mark VI has no heat, I'm looking for a solution. it appears the most likely issue is the ATC sensor which...8 replies | 267 view(s)

09-03-2021, 02:55 PMUnobtainium that’s great. It looks like the Mark VI also used different sensors. I found an 80-81 sensor but nothing so far for 82-83. Supposing...189 replies | 9695 view(s)
