2000 Lincoln Town Car Fuel Rail Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the fuel rail on 2000 Lincoln Town Car?

  A: You must start the fuel rail service and repair by staying away from smoking and open flames near fuel components because they contain highly flammable mixtures. Before beginning work disconnect the battery ground cable along with relieving the fuel pressure stream. Service begins with disconnecting fuel lines followed by throttle body removal together with extraction of the EGR valve from its position between the exhaust manifold tube. You must take out the drive belt followed by disconnecting all needed connectors then removing the bolts and generator mounting bracket. Unclip the accelerator cable and speed control actuator cable while separately disconnecting the LH heated oxygen sensor and transmission electrical connector from the cylinder head bracket at its back. Unfasten the nut bolt and wiring bracket while disconnecting vacuum lines and then remove eight fuel injectors from their place. The next step in replacement consists of removing the vacuum lines which connect to the EVAP canister purge valve and the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid together with the crankcase ventilation tube. Pull out the fuel injection supply manifold along with the fuel injectors as one unit after removing both the crash bracket and studs. The first installation step should involve applying clean engine oil to the fuel injector O-rings followed by reinstallation of the fuel injection supply manifold and fuel injectors as a single unit. Begin by mounting the studs together with the crash bracket after that attach the bolt and stud. Seal up the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid along with the vacuum line that leads to the evaporative emission canister purge valve and the second vacuum line. Proceed with attaching both the crankcase ventilation tube and eight fuel injectors followed by hooking up the vacuum lines. After fastening the nut and bolt on the bracket you should attach the LH heated oxygen sensor connector along with the transmission electrical connector then secure the accelerator cable and speed control actuator cable to the crash brackets. After installing the bolts you should place the generator mounting bracket in position before tightening all bolts. Finally, restore the electrical connector. The last step includes drive belt installation as well as attaching the EGR valve to exhaust manifold tube and throttle body and reattaching fuel lines before installing the ground cable on the battery.
