Mercury Villager

That's the beauty of it, there is not.

The cost of labor to change the front shocks on a 1997 Chevy S-10 pickup varies greatly by the place where service is performed. As of 2014 this ranges from 41.50 per shock to 80.00 per shock.

The 1997 Mercury Villager van has an EPA estimated city/highway mileage of 16 and 21 miles per gallon (mpg). The Villager wagon is also rated at 16/21 mpg.

my parents own the exact same van. when theres did this, it would run hot before quitting. we fixed this my removing the radiator and washing out the fins on the radiator itself. works perfectly now, not problems at all.. hope this offers some insight.

The 1996 Mercury Cougar OBD 2 port is under passenger side dash above glove box

A couple thing come to mind. Broken timing belt, broken camshaft, broken distributor shaft. Are you seeing the trend here?? I think your engine is BROKEN.

All you have to do just unlose the belt tensioner after you unlose it and replace with a new one and tight it up before you able to unlose you have to take the cover off underneat the engine in order to able to take the belt off the ac pulley, it takes you only 10 min or less. any question aaasian@wmconnect.com 208-409-7212

On the firewall behind the intake. PITA to get to or even see for that matter

You would need to be more specific with your question. You are not providing enough information to supply a meaningful answer. For a complex operation like rake repair that requires visual references, you should really invest in a repair manual.

It should be 30-35 psi with the engine running.

The relay is in the relay box under the hood. The fuse is in the fuse box.

That would be located under the car just in front of the second catalytic converter.

Timing marks are on the sprockets and on the timing belt itself. No other marks are necessary.

Transmission fluid is added through the dipstick tube.

Located in the air intake tube beside the battery.

Yes.

I have a 1999 Mercury Villager Estate, with the 3.3 liter V-6. I don't drive the van only in town, I have about a 10 mile trip at 55 - 60 mph to and from work, with some other short trips. I average about 17 mpg doing this, on the highway I get about 20 mpg. Hope this helps.

first remove the outer tie rod from the steering knuckle, then remove rubber/plastic sleave retaining clips carfully not to damage the sleave, turn the steering wheel to extend the inner rod outwards for better access to a point where you can get a open end wrench in there and unscrew. take out assembly. I suggest you replace the outer one also as its cheap. When re-installing be sure to put loctight on inner tie rod threads. It took me about an hour per side under the car. Be carfull not to damage the sleaves as the tend to cost more than the combined inner and outter rods at about $25 CAN each. Its not that difficult once the sleave clips are off, I used tie straps to secure the sleave afterwards. Total cost for inner and outer rods both sides parts should be under $100 US if you get made in china parts.

Check all of the plug wires. Make sure they are all routed correctly, and on tight. If that is all good then perhaps the timing belt is off by a tooth or two.

Shift solenoids are inside the transmission, and require disassembly of the transmission to replace.

On the top of the manafold.Itd literally under the windshield.

The motor mounts should not keep breaking if they are installed properly. The delay in the transmission indicates it needs work, probably a rebuild.

Under a small flap in the cargo compartment is a screw you turn to lower it. You use tire wrench to turn it.

Pull the latch.

Held in by two small screws under dash.
