On Vics, Marquis and Town Cars once you disconnect the exhaust hangar throw a ratchet strap around it and winch the pipe over to the side. Gets it entirely out of the way.
Gotta say, great video. I’m 99% done… that very last connector will not snap it. I’m just stuck at this point! Also; I had my truck next to the car and hooked a ratchet strap to the exhaust to pull it out of the way. That works very well.
Little tip for that one connector youcan use a 7/32 Allen key wedge it in pull left first then right then pop connector with a flat tip was super easy!
Howdy, I just went to start my 03 vic and I don’t hear the fuel pump. It turns over nice but not even a fart out of it. Fuses and relays are ok and so I’m thinking it’s gotta be a bad pump or the connection back there. What color were your fuel pump wires?
Just got a 06 crown Vic and she died on the way home of fucking around she will turn over but won’t start I’m assuming it’s the fuel pump atleast your not the only one in this boat
Yeah wtf I have a 03 cvpi and it started a few days ago completely fine, then the next day cranks and cranks, fuel gauge said it had some gas but I knocked on the tank and was bone dry. I filled it up and no issues for the day. Then today it's just cranking again no start... When I turn the key the first time, I'll hear the fuel pump kinda wine then it'll almost start but die and then just crank. Then when turning the key back and forth again the fuel pump no longer makes a wine noise. You guys have any suggestions? Relay maybe? Fuel pump trash?
Did you or anyone else complete this repair and the fuel gauge not work? I can hook all the electrical connection up outside of the tank and see that the float arm changes the gauge, but when I install it in the tank, it’s below empty.

I always like the part when you start it up and it RUNS! 😄
Nice workspace. The carpet ties the whole driveway together.
😂thank you
Great work ! You are a smart and fearless young man.
Between this and another video, it helped me. Thank you
Glad it helped!
Can you access the fuel pump from under the back seat or do have to take the gas tank down?

You did a fine job bro.

How empty should the gas tank be to avoid fuel dumping out when you remove the pump?
Thanx. Everyone else just cut that top wire in their vids.
Man thang is crusty. This oregon boy is not used to seeing that. 😅 Great video and information though😊
Lol, thank you!
This Georgia boy isn't used to seeing that either. I feel for you guys in the Rust Belt.
Lol PA here you gotta love it
Excellent Video my dude! Love It!

absolutely love you disconnected the fuel line ez as pie
how hard is this to do with a almost full tank??
Wow that rust. My 2000 CV has lived in AL its whole life, zero rust.
Great vid, works on aerobody crown vics too!
My eyes, MY EYES. Fuckin rust.

Can you do it was full gas tank
One wire plug doesn't come out as easy. It gets caught between the brace and fuel take. So how to you get it loose without cutting it?
It was pretty tight for me too but I was able to find a spot to sneak it through.
Good to hear. Thanks.@@smoked-outgarage3261
I was able to stick a straight pick between the connections and manipulate it loose.
How much does a shop charge??
About 850-1200
I finished mine in 2 hours and my RockAuto pump(Bosch) was $150
Stop being lazy
Good thing I don’t have a exhaust 🤣
I can’t get the fuckin connector off you make it look very easy
Ain't no way bro got rugs under the car 🤣
The rust omg 😳
1st!
“Easy way” no this is the fast way not the easy way
Is the easy way just dropping the tank?
