I have a 99 F150 4x4 V6 that the odometer sometimes is off when I start it and
then after a mile or so it will come on.  Any suggestions as to what I could
check?
Thanks in advance!

I have a 95' Econoline e-150 and it has a high-top raised roof.  The problem
I am having is excessive body roll on the interstate when lane changes are

My 1998 Windstar van has the door open alarm going off (as well as the dome

I just bought a real clean  '96 Signature Series Town Car with 118000 miles
from a dealer "as is" with no waranty. I just discovered it is leaking

I removed the fuse. Now, most lights on the dash come on (check guage,
service soon, open door, 4X4, 4L, door open buzzer) and go off at

up, and went through a dip in the dirt and my trunk, which had a
wheelbarrow bungeecorded in, knocked the trunk lid up in the air; at
the same time, my car turned off. I tried restarting the car, but it
