What happens when your are low on oil in a 1987 Lincoln town car?
If you run too low on oil in any car, the engine will freeze up and be ruined. The whole engine would have to be rebuilt or replaced which would cost over $3000.00. Better get a quart or two of oil. Much cheaper than a new engine and a car that will probably never be the same again.
Can bad timing cause your car to idle rough and vibrate badly while in gear?
If the timing is off a lot it can make your engine misfire and may not fire on every cylinder on every rotation. This can cause your engine to shake on its mounts and therefore shake your car, but usually at low RPM's. Poor airflow to the fuel ports can also make your car idle roughly. Might be a dirty air filter or the mass airflow sensor might be dirty (you can get throttle body cleaner for that). Also, low oil can cause you car to run roughly and labour a bit on hills.
