While night driving, after about an hour or so Headlights and interior lights flash off, then on off a few times, then corrects itself

Possible bad ground or a fuse box/relay issue I would think. Definately not safe to drive at night!

1997 Lincoln Town Car shuts off?

Question edited for clarity, name of maker and capitalization. Question moved to category. For strangeness like that, you need an auto-electrician with a $5,000 scan tool computer that can record the live data when that happens. It will be the only way to diagnose.

1997 Lincoln Towncar. Shifter stuck in park

There is a switch mounted on the arm of the brake pedal (under a plastic cover held on with 3 plastic push-pins). There is an electical connection attached to this switch. In my case one of the wires had broken and was not supplying electricity to the switch. By fixing the broken wire it allowed the shifter to properly move and got the brake lights working again.

My town car wont start after my oil filter was loose and oil leaked out

You broke it. Driving with the oil light on was VERY poor judgement. A red light means "STOP". You probably ran the engine without oil and the main/rod bearings started overheating and destroying themselves (the screeching you heard). Starting up again and continuing to drive without oil finished the destruction. It doesn't matter how much oil you put in it now, the crankshaft is frozen in position, and the starter cannot turn the engine over. Sorry, you need another engine.

Driveability problem

Need more specifics. However I just had this happen to my Mercury it turned out to be a small motor solenoid on the throttle body not working. Could also be a throttle position sensor, a dirty MAS sensor. Blocked air intake.

1997 Lincoln town car - engine miss

How do you know it's not a injector ? Could have a burnt transistor or driver in the PCM - engine computer . This transistor or driver supply's a PWM -pulse width modulated ground . No code's shown so probably not that . What is the compression of all the cylinders . How are you checking for codes ? Code reader ? A professional type scan tool that can view mode 6 data would show misfire counter . would know what cylinder is misfiring . Could have a transistor (driver) for coil control that could cause a misfire ,but would be two cylinders missing . Video's on youtube showing how to test a PCM/ECM driver (transistor) How to test computer transistor driver without scan tool
