You’ll get no argument from me, but it’s not been quantity of work, but disappointment, so I’m having a hard time getting back to it working on it. But on the other hand, if you think a 6.0 is bad, you don’t own a Lincoln LS.

It's funny you say that. My mom's sister just got rid of her Lincoln LS. What a piece of work. After awhile I'd shake if the phone rang and I noticed the number. plus a good friend of mine has one.

I'm hoping I'll be done with mine today...New parts at the dealer waiting to be picked up. We'll see how it goes today.

I’ve found a good number of LS’s in salvage yards with no physical damage, and used car dealers don’t want them.

I’ve probably worked 5x on the LS (Jaguar engineering in Lincoln clothing) then the 6.0. As I have parts shipping in for the LS, another issue has come up. RockAuto is very happy with me. And I have friends who constantly call me when the shops finally throw up their hands. It’s a vehicle you have to keep in front of and you still get bit.

And there are just weird quirks to it. Bad ignition coil signs, it’s the dual coolant flow valve for cabin heat. That reminds me, I just saw that code too. Third heater coolant control....... back to RockAuto.

But it drifts nice on off/on ramps.
