new rotors and new brake pads ...
...full job would include loaded calipers with all new hardware ..if you pay attention to disassembly you will not need a service manual necessarly..all is logical and straightforward...but you are dealing with safety so be sure you are good before taking a drive ...good luck

SOURCE: 2000 Lincoln ls overheating

There is a hose on the side of the coolant resevoir that has a straight blade screwdriver fitting in it. Open the fitting and this will bleed the heads on the LS. Without opening this you will never get the air out of the head, trust me.

One of 2 ways.......

#1) mounting screws on the exterior of the brake light lens.

#2) in the trunk behind the carpeting, usually this is the easiest way. either way the bulb is held in by a twist lock bulb holder.

It is located on the left frame rail in front of left rear tire.It has a plastic clip in each fuel line that will be white in color.Remove the clip then disconnect fuel line.Make sure to replace the clips,DO NOT reuse the old ones. Install the new clips into the connector then snap the connectors on to the filter.

SOURCE: Where is the fuel filter

To relive the fuel pressure look under hood on drivers side front of engine locate the fuel line where it goes into the fuel rail,trace it back a little ways and you will see a schrader valve for checking fuel pressure. Remove the plastic cap and take something like a small screw driver and press the pin in center to release pressure.
To replace fuel filter you have to remove left front wheel and inner plastic fender panel and fuel filter is located behind this at the back area.

LINCOLN LS 2000 O2 SENSOR

vibration is not likely to be an O2 sensor

rarely will I ever see an failed O2 cause anything but bad gas milage and a check engine light

More likely would be bad spark plugs/wires and/or maintenance items like a fuel filter

Is there a filter in lincoln LS 2000 automatic transmission? I had transmission service - drain and fill - done at local Lincoln dealer and service manager told me there is a non serviceable filter in the...

Ford has been using a brass screen filter for a long time. It's not non-servicible but is easily removed and washed off which is likely what they did. Generally if the filter becomes plugged up it is from debris caused by a failure, at which time a rebuild is necessary and filter change would not cure anything
Hope this helps!.
