I know that the port is supposed to be located below the steering column on most cars. I have looked and looked and can not see it. Do I have to remove some panels to get to it? Is there a photo of the location available?
look on the passenger side under the dash right by the center console

I need information on how to replace (or service) the door latch mechanism on my merc. I have realigned the door (and realigned the striker rod) and it will still not close. The latching system does not seem to be working. I have lubed it, worked the latch using a screwdriver to run it back and forth. The latch does not function in either primary or secondary capacity. DO I have to take the entire door apart to replace this latch? Any diagrams, advice or practical suggestions are SINCERELY welcomed.
Removal
Remove anti-theft shield from the front door latch.

how to adjust transmission cable to shift right
Hi,
Turn the ignition key in a clockwise direction until it reaches its
first position, meaning the position the key occupies before it begins
to crank the engine if turned further, then move the transmission's
shift knob to the "D" position. Turning the key to this position is
necessary to unlock the transmission's shift knob. The engine need not
be started to adjust the transmission's cable.
Jack up the vehicle with a shop jack, then lower the car onto safety stands to increase the workspace underneath the transmission.
Loosen,
but do not remove, the single nut which attaches the end of the
transmission's shift cable to the driver's side of the transmission with
a wrench.
Position
the shift lever on the side of the transmission, where the end of the
shift cable attaches to, to the "drive" setting by first rotating the
lever in a clockwise direction until the lever stops. Slowly rotate the
lever in a counterclockwise direction. As the lever is rotated, it will
click. The first time the lever clicks, the transmission is in second
gear. The second time the lever clicks, the transmission is in the
"drive" position.
Tighten
the single nut which attaches the end of the transmission's shift cable
to the transmission's shift lever to between 10- and 20 foot-pounds of
torque with a torque wrench.
Lift the vehicle with the jack and remove the stands, then lower the vehicle to the ground.
I hope this helps.

where is the oxygen sensor located on 1997 cougar xr7 and how to replace it.
There will be 4 sensors in this system. One in each exhaust manifold on each side of the engine. Locate the catalytic converter under the car and you will see one just before the "cat" nearest the engine and one just after the "cat". What does the code say that was retrieved. This will help you identify which sensor needs to be replaced. Bank one sensor one is the side with the number one cylinder. Bank one sensor 2 is the one just before the "cat". Bank 2 sensor 1 is in the exhaust manifold on the opposite side of number 1. Bank 2 sensor 2 is after the "cat". I hope this helps. The size needed to replace the sensor is either 7/8" or 22mm. Either one will work. Soak liberally with a good rust penetrant at least an hour before.

where is the fuel pump relay located on a 1994 cougar xr7
In the fuse panel (underhood), check the position 13FL, 20AMP for Fuel Pump...
Also, here can find the Mercury Cougar - Owners
Manual for other details.
Hope helped (remember comment and rated this post).

I have removed the old accumulator and disconnected the high and low side hoses at the Condenser and Evaporator (as well as from the Compressor) and I can't find the old orifice -- and I don't know where to install the new one. Help!!
The orifice tube will be on the small line joining the evaporator,the ac line will be swelled where the orifice tube is at,you may not can see it,but use needle nose pliers to remove it,and to install it.
