Weird thing started today, whenever I set the alarm the dash lights blink. Thought it was a low battery but check the battery and voltage was good,anybody have any suggestions. Hopefully this vid will show it. Don't mind the buss from the security light...
What did you do to your 3rd gen today?
New tires, 265 70 16 Falken Wildpeak AT3W. Ride great, already got them dirty. Love the look.

I use 12 ton under the frame most of the time, I have put them under the hitch if I need to get at the area I usually would put the stands. But I always leave my floor jack under there some where.

Also make sure the rear window is all the way up. I know my 98 has this safety feature. Mine didn't even look like it was down.

Slide the cover up like your going to take it off. The clips need to be squeezed together to be pulled out. When putting them back in make sure they are turned right to latch in the headrest. I got one of mine backwards and have yet to fix it. Also hog rings are easy to use.
Removed mine without a spring compressor. There was a write up about it on this site somewhere or maybe it was another site. It is a lot of work this way. But do able. And i never felt unsafe.
You may get some clearance tapping it with a hammer but it may also push the front bearing out of place. I would remove the front seal. Put a deep socket to fit the inside of the bearing before tapping on it at all. You will probably need a new seal.
I'm having the same problem with my 98. I figured it may be the sending unit as it started when my better half started driving it more than me when I got my Lincoln and its out of gas every time I get in it. I figure it's corroded up.
If it was repaired right it would be fine. My concern would most likely be how long it sat before it was worked on. That amount of oxidation may also be in the engine also.
