20 Most Recent 1990 Lincoln Continental Questions & Answers

thats depends on whats attached but you can remove it from car with a 1000 # lift if that's what your asking hope this helps mike

You need to take it to a place that does emission testing , you can't just purchase one .

hello, in regards to your problem, I had this same problem with my 1990 Lincoln Continental. The relay is not in any panel, nor is it at the fuel tank. I traced the cable to the engine bay, the relay is one of two located on the firewall, situated in the middle. I found in my car, that it is the left one of the two, if you are standing in front of the car. It will have a VERY large yellow cable going/coming from it. This is the cable which sends power the fuel pump, it is unregulated, and their are no fuses in this circuit. The fuel pump, gets full power it needs from the power system.
I hope this helps, and you won't have to resort to cutting out a whole like I did, under your rear seat to test the fuel pump, or to trace the wiring harness. -- Alfredo

I will go get my 1990 Continental owners manual, and the picture shows the fuse panel and what each fuse is for and what amp it is, etc... Hopefully you still need it.. If you do, I'll go get it...

Find the compressor, follow the pipes out from the compressor, one is smaller than the other and runs out to the front of the car. The bigger of the two will run to the passenger side and hook up thorough a tank going to the firewall. Along this line you will find a port, it should have a black plastic cap which will screw off by hand, this is the port you use to fill the system with freon.

OK, do you just need the bulb? Or the whole plastic "clear" lens part that covers the bulb?

If you just need the halogen bulb, it comes out the back of the lens under the hood.

any more details, or how to replace the whole "plastic" part, I would visit my local library.

if you take to dealer they will program your new number for you
good dealership wont even charged

one of the door switches is sticking take one out at a time normally start with the driver side disconnect the battery on the negative side and then take the switch out and put a little oil ( WD-40 or some oil similar to that) because the switches could be rusty or bad causing this problem but you can take out the dome light bulb until you can get the problem fixed

No heat? More than likely, it's a thermostat problem. If it is stuck in the open position, your coolant will flow out to the radiator to be cooled and not held back in the engine to get hot. I would recommend taking your vehicle to a mechanic and have them check it out. They should be able to determine quickly why you're not getting proper heat.

What You need is a power steering pressure hose assembly. NO! you cannot just replace it with a piece of rubber hose! That thing takes about 1200 PSI of pressure! The entire hose assembly from the pump to the steering gear is only about $20 and should be available at most any retail parts store.

Your car has several different types of oils or fluids (motor oil, transmission oil, power steering fluid/oil, brake fluid, and differential oil - if applicable). . Before you can determine how to fix your problem, you need to determine exactly what you problem is, meaning you need to figure out what fluid is leaking.

Good Luck!

Ok this one is a tough one. If your handle on the outside does not work for some time, then the rod that attaches to the handle has most likely come loose. Your options are limited. I usually do not recommend the use of a slim jim. However in this case, a slim jim is an option. Inside your read door panel are three main rods. One rod moves the inside handle. The other rod moves the outside handle. The third rod is attached to the lock knob. Using the slim jim slide it into the door. Hook it onto one of the rods and pull up slightly. Try to see what is moving when you move the rod. If it is the inside handle or lock knob is moving, then find another rod that moves nothing. That will be the rod that should be attached to your outside handle. Lift up on that rod and it should open your door.
After you open the door, go ahead and take the time to fix your door, by removing the door panel and re-attaching the rod to the handle.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

As theirs more than one for your car depending on the plant it was built in and the state that the car was built for the best place is the service dept. of your frendly neirbhood ford dealer and be nice and have your VIN in hand and maybe they'll print you out the right one. You can go to the parts store and get a Haynes or a Chilton self fix book for your car but it'll show more than one model year and the man differnt ones depending on the story Ijust told and if you don't do this work all the time it'll be too confusing. A shop with even alldata can print you one out too or you can subscribe to alldata online for just our car and you'll have the best repair imformation you can get and it's the whole car everthing and it's about 10 for a whole year, justr the one car I pay 168 a month for all cars. It pays the monthly cost every day so it's worth it to me.
