Crown Vic noise in rear suspension FIXED!

Crown Vic noise in rear suspension FIXED!
Mine works after a few or more pumps of the gas pedal. Would that be a new part needed also?
I mine brake pedal
I checked the specs for the Peak Antifreeze you are using and it appears to be Glycol based. Crown Vic's and GM's require HOAT (Hybrid Organic Alcohol Technology) based coolants. The reason for this is that the Panther platform engines have a cast iron block, with an aluminum radiator, intake manifold and heads. HOAT avoids making a battery out of the dissimilar metals, which causes aluminum to migrate to the cast iron block. Over time, this will cause your radiator to wear out faster and your heads to start leaking. Remember we are trying to get 300,000+ miles out of our cars. This is a time to go with Mastercraft Gold or use Zerex G-05. I buy Zerex for around $18 per gallon and flush my vehicles every 50,000 miles.
interesting... I have had zero issues running the "universal" coolants
Degreasers are another thing that have suffered performance wise from the old days. I'd like to try this, it doesn't seem to be available locally. "Clean".
Thank you im working on mine tomorrow, the same problem.
hope it goes well
Thx
Anyone know what's the right length of CVPI roof emergency light? I have MBPD Vic.
my city has 2 still in service Vics. I'll try to remember to measure. If I forget, please come back here and remind me
Another product I will use on my P71 and Brothers twin P71
i talked to one of my friends, he has a ford taurus police interceptor 2013, i have a 2017, mine and his trunk button doesnt work and apparently ford doesnt make harnesses for the release switch, guessing for safety rules for the police trims
interesting
This video is just if ur face blabbering on
My Explorer wires were never cut… I can hear a relay clicking under the dash near the fuse box somewhere, but I still have no horn I removed the driver side front wheel and looked at the horns and wiring, it’s all fine…
relay clicking means at least part is connected. Need to see if the relay source has power and if it's sending it, how far is it sending it before cut. I mention this because the Crown Vic door lock relay will click but not lock/unlock doors if the fuse is blown... so the relay is powered separate from the lock/unlock power
Yo. Yo.
Yo.
Giveaway! Looks like a great product! Thanks for turning me on to it!
Do the insulators come with the springs or do i purchase separately? Looked at the amazon link and didnt see those included unless like i said, they come separately, to which, didnt see link for those
I'm working from memory, but I don't think they came with them
CVPI looking clean AF. 👍
Very nice!!
I use a gallon Arizona iced tea plastic bottle with a twist off lid. I just hold the bottle upside down, loosen the lid a little to let the water out, then tighten it when all the water is out.
another good idea
clean
Me love me some super clean 🧽 👍👍
15:27 I wouldn’t use silicone on anything paint related. Marvel Mystery has been used in a pinch but old fashioned 3-in-1 with just a drop or two has been fairly innocuous and successful for me. Silicone goes for miles and plays mean games with a paint job.
who else sees WJ post and likes the vid before even watching
I do!
"clean" :)
Clean non offensive comment 😂
I’m glad they don’t just sell the aerosol. Those always have like half the liquid.
I still get compliments on my Super Clean shirt all the time. The spray is pretty good too.
What im confused is mine goes down but when you release it diesnt come back up you gotta pull on the pedal really hard to get it back up im guessing its going to be before this. As the release cable is working and functioning
Thanka for confirming. I hated how weird it is. I got one with low miles and i feel like the previous owner got it repainted cause the paint looks fresh. But it seems the old lady replaced all the hardware and noticed these brand new strikers dont have bushings. This video confirmed my thoughts thank you
That looks like a good product to give a try.
I have seen the motor, you eat off it.
One question does it matter if u have a engine cover
if you're talking about that plastic cover that came on some of the earlier police interceptors and maybe all of the civilian models, I can't remember if it covered the thermostat housing or not, but if I recall it was one bolt in the middle to remove it
One of the best informative videos
thank you
Good work. I would have recommended using heat on the lower ball joints
that probably would have been better :)
How about drilll a small hole in the cap
there are undoubtedly many ways to do this
Nice instructions are easy to follow. I just got done with mine. Thanks
glad it was helpful
Can you install it again on another phone if the current phone dies
as far as I know you can install it on as many devices as you need to. But that would be a great question for their tech support. I have installed it on multiple devices, including switching phones, and it worked fine.
How do u benefit from this? Not saving money “ still have to buy gas”! So you are purifying it! Which does what?
the main purpose most folks would use this for is for their carbureted engines - like most lawn equipment. Ethanol seems to destroy carburetors.
Alert !!!! Don't store gas in milk jugs they turn into slimy goooo and spread gas all over the floor in the process
I cleaned my cells in vinegar like the manual says because the bigger cell had salt build up on the 2 tiny metal tabs inside that worked for a few hours now got code 90 again. I checked the contacts under the plug they look clean and shiny and water flow is strong so idk whatsy issue now
I haven't tried the purge air on the chlorinator box yet gonna go try that and pray lol.
good luck, these things are finnicky! Mine isn't chlorinating this year. Intex customer support was useless. I suspect the wires are not making good contact but there isn't an easy way to check for continuity with a multimeter
Ford can’t replace the CVPI. They just can’t dude. There will never be anything built that good. It was a simple time.
Did the same thing new one cost 184.45 I was like nope 👎
yeah, no reason to spend that much money. I have a lot of "hacks" on this channel to save money fixing things. I fixed the cluster lighting for "free" in this video: ruclips.net/video/4Jle5BEF5aE/видео.html
I’ve been thinking lately .. how would the rear end look if you were to somehow do a tuck on the rear bumper cover skirts, and matched that with widened rear steelies… 🤔
if you do it, post a video and link it here so everyone can see
Still have to bleed the ABS though don't you? That air is going to go through the whole system so may as well have the dealer do their computerized ABS bleed otherwise you'll still have a spongy pedal feel... happened to me.
I have an Xtool D7 - they and similar (as well as Forscan) all do the ABS bleed procedure
what did you tell texas DMV once you had Sd plates and texas registration came due?
you don't have to tell them anything, you just don't renew. I went back to TX plates and that requires going in person and moving everything back to TX
@@WJHandyDad WHY DID YOU SWITCH BACK OVER?
@@mofo9900 I originally switched because during the pandemic the TX inspection stations were all closed or unstaffed. The governor wouldn't suspend inspections so I had to choose between driving with expired TX or get out of state registration. Now the inspection stations are all open again and thankfully 1-1-25 TX won't have inspections any more.
My brake pedal sinks after changing the front brake calipers. They have changed the brake master cylinder, they have bled the ABS module with a scanner and it remains the same. I can't find the problem, any ideas?.
possible that the calipers are bad or that the caliper pins weren't lubricated properly (assuming it's not actually air in the system or a leak)
@@WJHandyDad The calipers were news and the caliper pin was new too and with grease. Maybe air, i dont now. Thanks.
@@cransaftvalve734 good luck, soft brake pedals are frustrating when they don't resolve with a simple bleed
I couldn’t figure out why my car was running like crap… I found out about ethanol free… on my 3rd tank of ethanol free and it seems to be running smoother now and getting way better gas mileage. I’m not sure why it’s running smoother other than maybe since it was sitting so long the ethanol was maybe starting to gum up inside the engine and fuel lines… but it’s running way better now. Just have to keep an eye on it.
very possible that the old fuel separated into watered down ethanol and gasoline.
@@WJHandyDad didn’t even think about that but yeah that might have been it
is it the 1 above the oil filter?
that is the approximate location
@@WJHandyDad is it normal for the power steering fluid to smell very bad if it hasn't been changed?
@@CaptainAries98 all fluids will get a bad smell if not changed regularly
after changing my transmission fluid last night my power steering fluid smelled somewhat burnt and would like to know if it needs changed or if it's normal?
@@WJHandyDad the videos helped me n my gf especially when it came to the transmission fluid for my 09 p71 🤙🤜🤛
Was this car throwing a P0455 code? My car generally does not have trouble filling up, However, after filling the tank, if I make a hard turn it will stall. There’s been times where it stalled and would not restart, but it’s been about four or five years since that happened. My CEL it’s pretty much always illuminated, about once a year it turns itself off for an extended period of time. Also, can you give me instruction on how to test the purge valve with a voltmeter? I’d like to determine if it’s working correctly.
I’m pet-sitting for my brother & SIL. Long story short, they are dealing with a sudden death overseas, so I’m trying to keep my communication to the essentials. Which is why I’m here: I can’t seem to locate how to turn the chlorination part off (& I guess back on) on this model. Instructions would be greatly appreciated not just by me but also by the 18 month puppies who enjoy a good romp in the pool.
I love the calm voice tone could listen to you tell me how to fix things all day long
