What kind of gas do you use for a lincoln mark?
Premium unleaded is recommended for the Lincoln Mark series. Apparently you can use regular but I've heard/read of reduced performance and mileage.
I've always used premium in my 93 Mark VIII and it runs very smoothly. For me, the 20 cents/gallon price difference isn't worth risking extra wear and tear to the engine.
Will Thunderbird springS fit a Mark VIII?
From my understanding, there are no springs that will fit the Mark VIII. I had to replace my air bags with springs and Front struts. it's a conversion kit. Check out strut masters. I paid to have the rear springs put on, but did the front struts myself with no help. I jacked the car up, took the olds airbags out then using a jack I lifted the struts into place tighten the three bolt on top. not to tight. This held the struts in place, while I worked dropped the wheel hub. the struts then went right in there. I tighten everything and I was good to go. I saved myself over $300 by doing it myself.

Can the hid lights on a 1996 Lincoln mark viii lsc be changed to regular lights?
You can easily change to regular lights, all you have to do is bypass the amp that's located behind the radiator on the passenger side. Make sure you disconnect the battery before you touch ANYTHING, because the amp creates enormous amounts of power that could actually be fatal. Hard to imagine from a 12V Battery right? Once you bypass the amp, you'll have to find a way to fit a regular bulb in your hid light sockets...just be creative.
It's the same unit, and the cause of my headlights flickering when I drive under street lights. I disconnected it for this reason. Actually, the automatic headlight sensor (aka the "autolamp" sensor) is located under the dashpad. If you look toward the middle of the dashpad, near the base of the front windshield, you will see a small honeycomb pattern approximately 1.5 inches in diameter. The autolamp sensor is located directly below this (if you're trying to get to this sensor, you'll obviously have to remove the pad -- two screws in each defrost vent, one of each side, and several screws under the front lip -- pull the entire pad up and toward the back of the car and voila). Make sure to NEVER place anything over the autolamp sensor area, as it will block ambient light and activate the headlamps unnecessarily.
There is also a high beam sensor located in the front grille. This sensor basically sees the headlights of oncoming cars and switches your headlights to low-beam accordingly. If you are having issues with it flickering under streetlights, my first suggestion would be to take a soft cloth and clean its lens very well. Then, use the right wing of the headlight switch to adjust the distance sensitivity. If you don't want it to work at all, turn it all the way toward the up position, then pull the high-beam switch stalk toward you to disengage the high beams. Otherwise, move the right wing of the headlight switch downward and it will increase the distance before the lights flick from high to low beam.
you should change those every 100000 miles. but if it feels sick its a good idea

Are there lowering springs on a Lincoln Mark VII?
there is a coil spring conversion made by Arnott, i have it on my 91 LSC SE and the ride is so much better, i would check out Eibach, Tein, and other spring companies, as well as cross reference parts from a thunderbird/cougar/mustang of the same year range There are ride height adjusters under the front and rear of the car to lower the car all you need to do is adjust these and you can drop it at least a couple inches. only make sure car is supported by jack stands when doing so.

How do you remove the drivers door panel on a 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII?
Very easy and no broken clips to be dealt with either!!!! Remove the small blank plug below the interior door handle which will expose a small bolt head, take that bolt out and then remove the lamp assemble at the lower rear position of the door panel by carefully prying up on the rear-most edge of the lamp itself. Unplug the lamp and remove the Phillips head screw behind the lamp. Roll the window down and then shut the key off. LIFT the entire door panel very carefully straight up and keeping the door panel very close to the door, unplug the 4-5 connectors for the power windows, locks, speakers and door handle lamp and then the door panel can be pulled free of the door. The door panel has molded in "hooks" whch hold the panel to the door. Be careful not to bend the door lock rod when reinstalling by pushing the lock down. Make sure you have the keys removed from the car when reinstalling the panel and make sure you plug ALL the plugs back ini upon reinstallation.
Where do you find the horn on a Lincoln mark 8?
If it's the horns themselves that you are asking about, if my memory serves me, they should be by the radiator.
Alternator is probably going. Have it tested and replace it with the 130 amp alternator for a 96 Cobra. It fits fine. All you have to do is free up a few inches of wire by undoing the wire loom and pulling them out a little. The crappy one they use for the Mark VIII is a Mitsubishi putting out 120 amps. It was never designed to be re-built properly. Avoid the hassle and buy one from Ford. Do not waste money at a parts shop buying no-name alternators...warranty or not...if you have to change it every 2 years and get stranded somewhere, it's no deal.
Also, check your battery. It may be running low and should be fully charged before connecting it to a new alternator. Buy a new battery at the same time as the alternator if you think yours is weak. Batteries should put out about 12.3 - 12.5 when the cars not running and about 13.4 - 14 running.
(95 Mark VIII Owner) To help confirm; I have gone through several Parts Store alternators. In the process I have ALWAYS had charging problems. Even with new alternators and new batteries. Suck it up and buy the Ford OEM model. It WILL save you a multitude of headaches. And yes, I too have had to change it out every couple of years. And have been left stranded. Not only by the alternator, but also the Parts Store with the "Lifetime" warranty.

How do you replace a multifunction switch on a 1993 Lincoln mark viii?
