1991 Ford Crown Victoria S review from North America
"Big old boat with lots of power"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car came with an exhaust leak which I thought was one the exhaust headers. It turned out to be something on the intake manifold that was leaking so all I had to do was tighten two bolts and the problem was solved.
It was leaking oil when I bought it and I still don't know what the problem is. I removed the oil cooler, tightened the valve covers and it's still leaking oil (front driver side of engine).
The car came with the air conditioning not working and I doubt I'll fix it.
General comments?
My car came with the full police package and handles like a dream for the old boat (just as good as my dad's 2000 Grand Marquis).
The 351 is a gas guzzler, but it feels so good to hear it purr when you step on it.
The interior is in perfect condition, no cracks, tears, or missing components.
