Man, just changed out the oil in my 2000 Crown Victoria Police interceptor yesterday with this. I HAVE USED THIS VERY OIL for close to 20 years. My shit runs as good as it has since I first drove it out of the Orange count sheriff's dept, Parole dept. auction lot. Never use anything else.
When I still had my Vic, Walmart used to have awesome deals on Mobil 1 oil, so I would get the High Mileage Extended Mileage 5W-20 and then usually just a regular Motorcraft FL-820S filter
I put KYB OEM equivalent shocks on my old Crown Vic several years ago. The major brands made the car float and bob like a '62 model. I tried KYB because they had a set for my car and a 2-3 year range. Everyone else was 'this fits '75 thru 2002 models. I was very pleased with them.
I swapped all this, gas pedal, coil packs and checked all plugs, throttle body with TPS and IAC all as one unit, fuel pump, filter is already new. I did one thing at a time then test drove it, nothing made a difference in the issue. So I thought let me go back to the 2008 MAF, (had the 2006 MAF in it), I'll clean the 2008 MAF real good, and run with the Cone style K&N filter off. It took a few miles but it was a near instant fix, it ran perfect. I stopped and put the K&N Cone style air filter back on and drove 3 more miles, and it started to act up again and stalled on a slow turn. So I put the OE Air Filter box and tube etc.. back on, and WALLA!! It runs perfect. It was totally an Air Delivery issue!
when doing research I noticed the lb/hr rates for injectors vary somewhat widely across the whale model years. Bought OEM injectors and behavior went away. the injectors that came out were the wrong lb/hr (you can differentiate by colored tabs on injectors there are several forum posts on injector identification). ECM could adjust but it didn't like it. Would intermittently but not consistently throw bank 1 and 2 lean codes.
I replaced my worn out cloudy/mildewed headlight bodies on my 2006 CVPI with these TYC replacement OEM-look headlights from Rock Auto. So far, they've worked really well for the 4 months I've had them installed. No leaks/condensation or short circuits/failures. They were really useful on long drives (4-6 hours) at night or early morning where there aren't any streetlights for long stretches on the highway. The only complaint I have is the "high beams" just seem like a change in point of aim (higher), rather than increased illumination.
I got MSD Street Fire coils to replace mine and its been 4 months so far and they're running strong.
2005 CVPI...180,000 mi....spark plug blown out of head. The Crown Vic was purchased at auction for $4200 a bunch of years ago with 100,000 miles and was very good to us until about a week ago...original engine, suspension parts, transmission and very few repairs.
NEVER GET AN AIRTEX PUMP unless you like doing this work, because you will be doing it again if you do.
