If the check engine light is on go to a place like Advance Auto Parts or AutoZone and have them hook there scanner to your car. The scanner will tell them codes and what exactly is wrong with it as long as its an electrical problem. Remember first, what are the three main things that must happen for an engine to run, one is fuel, then air, and combustion (spark). So make sure the engine is getting adequate air, check the air filter, make sure theres enough fuel, check gas tank, is the fuel filter plugged, dirty injectors, bad spark plugs or coils, ensure the battery is good, alternator charging efficently. Now if the check engine light is on and you checked everything i explained, when you do go to the auto parts store there could be two main sensors that could be shot, one could be the MAF (mass airflow sensor) or ICV (idler control valve), just make sure you fix it, there should be no lincolns left lying around not running and looking good, lets keep the population of Lincoln Continentals alive

Depends on what you're driving. Most cars have gas shocks and some have air shocks. Air shocks are more comfortable, with an automatic leveller, as in Lincoln Continental, in my opinion.
