for sure! i've got the new part, but im plannning to also flush/change the coolant. i haven't looked it up yet but do you think i should do that before or after changing the manifold?

Flush after, is my thoughts. You can't be sure of the pressure ahead of time, so flush after and you're flushing a new system.

I think the Crown Vics had a coolant input below the top-off threshold so you may need one of those pumps to flush it properly - but you can probably do the whole 'hose squeeze' thing and get most of the air out of the system.

It's a Crown Vic... Everything you could ever want to know is definitely online. They made like a million of those fuckers.

If I was on a limited budget and needed a car, the Crown Vic would be one of my first choices. They're awesome and you can drop the complete front end and replace it in a matter of hours and toss on a new fender all at the same time - and all those parts can be had at the nearest junk yard for like $100 bucks.

Thanks for the advice, I'm gonna look over a few things. I should for sure get a pressure reading to make sure I get the seal right ha. But yes! It's why I still have her lol. She is a damn tank! I put a fresh suspension on her and new tires, among a few other things. I used to have access to a car lift and damn was that helpful! Its fun nonetheless tho and much more affordable when u can fix your own stuff haha

LOL I have a lift. (I have more than that, but bragging isn't really my style.) A lift is one of the handiest things you can have in your garage.

Fixing this shouldn't be a problem. Make sure it seats properly and you should be golden. Again, you may need to find a pressurized system to flush the coolant - but maybe not. If the input from the radiator into the engine is higher than the top of your radiator's cap, you'll have to pressurize it. You can force it by squeezing the hose that goes into the highest point of the engine. I'm not 100% sure what the setup is in the Crown Vics.

Hell, I bet you still scare people at night. They probably still think you're cops.
