Hi, everyone, I have a '93 Automatic Crown Vic myself, and I am having some problems. One, I don't know how many miles the car really has, the numbers have been the same since I got it from my mother-in-law, who's son had it, and his uncle had it before him. Well, the care has been perfect till up to a month or so ago, I mean there were some problems, but I didn't think nothing of it, 'cuz it didn't act up... now its bad.
I am having the same problem, where my shift seems to be in park, but slips into neutral or reverse. I have to "slam" like stated in another post, just to make sure it is in park, but then also have to put the E-brake on(this is because, I was getting out once, and the car started rolling, and luckily I was able to jump in and slam on brake.) There's times also, where I will shift into reverse and I'm stuck in neutral, same if i go into Drive. Can I be having the same troubles as the other two?
Also, if I could maybe get some help on another problem... There are a lot of times while I am driving, that my car will sputter... like its having troubles moving forward, and during this it fights to gain speed(this is worse, when I got to make a turn into traffic or get on a main road!) I noticed a clunking sound also while it does this, and to me is seems like its fighting to shift into another gear... This is hard to explain really... but maybe you will understand. I am no good with cars, but I hope I can get some help. I also just replaced oil filter, and fuel filter, put new oil in. Checked Tranny Fluid and it looks alright. I also used some Fuel-Injector Cleaner.
Thank you.
