88/89 XR4 Brakes

Brake pedal has a tendency to travel near the floor! Obviously this isn't good...I can't locate any fluid leaks. And the brake light in the dash flashes.
What's the issue? M/C, booster, or......
any input appreciated

89 condenser fan relay

Hello
My 89 XR has an electrical issue. With ignition off the condenser fan keeps spinning running battery down.
Is this the relays by driver side headlight the issue?

Re: Harmonic balance bolt

Thanks Joe for the input. However, the car is a C-3 not the T-9. Ford had to have a tool for the removal of the balance!

XR4 Brakes

I have lost a lot of brake peddle. Much travel but at least I still have some brakes in my 88. I bled the brakes and had little or no help in braking. When I depress the brake peddle I hear what I would describe as wheezing! Am I dealing with a failing master cylinder or could the brake booster be t...

1989 Scorpio Cooling System Reservoir

My squarish not rounded reservoir sprung a small pinhole leak. I replaced it with the more oval rounded reservoir and it solved my leak or so I thought. When I went to close the hood it was obstructed! The right hood support was striking the end of the reservoir and I did not want to force closing t...

XR engine idle, performance issues

What causes the engine when accelerating to have a slight trailer hitching?
And often when I accelerate and let up the clutch the engine RPMs will drop below
500 (stumbling slightly) but always return to normal range of around 900 RPM?
Thanks

Scorpio EATC motor gear alignment

Hi If either the Temperature Blend Door Motor or Air distribution Door Motor fails and are replaced how do you realign the gears so that the EATC module can properly position the doors? In my case the Distribution motor failed and just shrieked and gave a 16 trouble code. I'd imagine the vent motors...
