I have a VERY stiff steering wheel. Hard to turn
Hello! The place that you put the fluid into is opaque...You should see the fluid moving around inside...This shows that the pump is, in fact, "pumping" if it is not moving, shut off the engine... push down and up on the belt...It should only move about 3/4"...Any more then that may be a sign that the belt is loose and slipping...Here is a picture of Miss Vicky's belt...How old is the belt?? May need to replace...If you hear a whining noise from the pump when turning the wheel there is air trapped in the lines...Jack up the front...remove the fluid cap and turn the wheels lock to lock several times...Top off with fluid and try it out...No improvement ? buy a new pump...Saailer
I’m happy to help further over the phone at

Gauges stopped working in my 2000 crown Victoria,
Most likely there is a fuse out. check for your dash fuse. If that is fine.. I would suspect failed dash unit. Once you get the dash unit off, I would search the connecter for a 12 volt source to verify it is bad. just check all the tabs for 12v and ground out on any near by metal. key on position should be used to get the power to dash.
Low voltage at idle
You might need to remove the alternator and carry it down to your partstore so they can bench test it and determine if it is charging properly? It could be the voltage regulator in the back of the alternator which held by four screws?
My coolent fan turns off then car runs hot
I would check my relay's and or your fuses first. If thats not it, let it cool down and take it to Auto Zone or somewhere close to have a diagnostic readout done. Good luck.
2000 ford crown victoria ... a small metal on
There should be some shim space between the pulley and the assembly. If the pulley is wobbling that is a problem. If it wobbles or your belt looks out of alignment going around the pulleys or has excessive belt play then you would need to address that concern. It also could be a rider pulley. Sometimes you can narrow down sounds with a stethoscope. I'd also check the pulley under the timing chain cover (with a stethoscope is easiest for that one). The other pulleys and belt you can put your finger of a ruler on the edge of the pulley and feel for vibration, there shouldn't be any. Be mindful of the fan while doing this and keep your sleeves rolled up.
How do i change my oil pan on my 2000 ford crown
Yes you will have to raise the engine, also, and remove some other items that can be damaged when lifting. An engine hoist will be needed for this job. This text was taken from a 2000 crown vic workshop manual.
see pic for torque sequence. i could not locate a torque spec, so you will have to hand feel them. if it is a rubberized gasket do not over tighten as it will crush the gasket.
Hope this helps!

I replace icm and ecm light still ain't working
That's just a loose/bad ground connection. Slamming the door will jar it enough to make the connection for a time. Check and tighten the ground connections under the dash at the firewall. Ground wires are white on auto's.
Will turn over but not start
I believe that your crankshaft sensor has gone bad. Is your check engine light on? If you can scan for codes the cars computer will tell you what's wrong. GOOD LUCK FRIEND.
I hate got water in my engine on my 2000 Crown
stop trying to start up your car, it will create more damage to your engine. water may have seeped into the combustion area or may have rusted your internal engine (crank shaft) due to prolonged exposure to water.If the water damage occurred recently , bring in your car to the nearest service center, have engine checked for damage and an immediate engine oil change, this will resolve the problem.
