I had a 99 Lincoln Navigator. The most top of the line SUV Ford had that year. DOHC 32v V8 5.4 Intec Engine. Only the Mustang cobra that year, had the same engine.
Nice. I bought it used. Needed third row seats.
It was a nightmare. A coolant hose blows. Ok no prob, radiators and cooling Ive done for years on cars. Well, I thought. Untill I found out the hose runs in the valley of the V under the intake manifold. So a simple hose repair turned into a nightmare of removing a three piece aluminum intake and throttle body. Then electrical gremlins later. I will never buy a 90's earley 2000 ford again. They are engineerd to fuck up. Ask anyone with a 90's ford pickup about a simple spark plug change.
