    Drove a white with black leather 97 SHO for awhile, was a smooth car. Ended up trading it to a guy for a fully loaded mark VIII. I actually think the solid red taillights look better on the later SHOs.

    • @bentnickel7487
      @bentnickel7487 2 місяці тому

      The ohv has a cast iron block, be sure to keep the water pump new and refresh the antifreeze, every other year, if rust starts in the cooling system it will run hot and warp the heads. That's the only way you can hurt these bulletproof engines.

    I’m guessing the compressor is the issue?

      And I don't believe for a second that Contour can run up to 140+ mph like the long legs of the GEN 3. Do you even know the OEM tire rating on a GEN 3? I doubt the same for that Contour.
