Stinkin' Lincoln update part DEUX
2 years ago
So, I was given a quote of $2700 by a shop.
Fuck that, did it myself.
My car is back on the road after about 10 hours of work. I replaced my exhaust manifold, coil boots, water pump, thermostat, and thermostat housing.
We had to remove (other than the above,)the fuel rail, throttle body, alternator, fuel injectors, and quite a few brackets.
It was definitely a learning experience and overall cost me about $500 . . . and that was with an additional problem we found - that the coil boots were coming apart - as well as the purchase of some special sockets.
I call this a win. Thanks a lot to my friend Jax for helping me with this process! Could not have done it alone.
