1994 Lincoln Continental Problems
Overheating Due to Damaged Water Pump
Erratic engine coolant temperature or intermittent overheating can be caused by corrosion inside the water pump. The impeller may spin on the water pump shaft or the impeller may corrode. Either condition reduces coolant circulation resulting in engine overheating.
Oil coated air filer causing mass air flow sensor failure
Do not use air filters with oil-coated elements. They may cause premature failure of the mass air flow sensor; this is not covered under the warranty.
Premature head gasket failure may cause overheating
There were problems with premature head gasket failure that could cause overheating problems due to coolant loss. A new head gasket design and assembly procedure was released to fix the problem.
AC Not Cold Due to Damaged Hose
Some of the AC hoses are exposed and may be damaged by speed bumps and parking lot blocks.
Clunking Noise and/or Damaged AC Hose
Worn motor mounts can cause the motor to rise during acceleration, causing a clunking noise and possibly damaging the AC hoses. Damage to the AC hoses can cause a loss refrigerant resulting in no cold air from the AC. The motor mount will need to be replaced prior to repairing the damaged hose or the problem will continue.
Adjust AC Clutch Air Gap For Proper Compressor Operation
Checking and adjusting the AC compressor clutch air gap can extend the service life of the AC compressor.
Corrosion May Form at Grounding Points Near Battery
Corrosion can form at the grounding points near the battery. There may be electrical faults and the engine may crank but not start.
Corrosion on Battery Cable Ends
Check the battery cable ends frequently for corrosion. Corrosion can easily migrate under the cable insulation and cause numerous electrical faults and drivability issues.
Turn Off Air Suspension System Before Jacking/Lifting Vehicle
Prior to jacking or lifting a vehicle with air suspension, you must turn off the suspension switch. The switch is generally located in the trunk or on the right side of the passenger foot well.
Exhaust Leak in Fornt of Catalytic Converter
An exhaust leak may develop in front of the catalytic converter. This type of leak should be corrected as soon a possible to avoid damaging the catalytic converter.
Sagging Suspension Due to Air Leaks
Sagging suspension can be a result of air suspension struts and/or drier leaking air. These type of air leaks can lead to failure of the air suspension compressor.
Rough Idle and/or Engine Stalling Condition
In high dust areas, problems with the EGR system are common. The filter for the EGR solenoid may plug and cause the EGR to activate when it should not; this can cause the engine to stall. The dirty filter should be replaced to correct this concern.
Ensure battery height is correct when replacing battery
Install insulator kit to prevent vibration caused by air compressor
Incorrect starter relay can cause poor running/low fuel economy
