2001 mercury sable update#
Receiving a massive styling update last year, the Mercury Sable can travel further in 2001 with the addition of a larger 18-gallon fuel tank. This has been going on for years however and I don't think it is related. Sporting a center console shifter resulting in a five-passenger cabin, the 2005 Mercury Grand Marquis LSE is also equipped with a rear air spring suspension and 16-inch aluminum wheels.

My current plan is to do my transmission service and then swap out the actual PCV valve. I refilled the fluid (No leaks in two days?) and have since then only had the higher than normal rpm. After doing that, my rough idle was almost gone outside of a jumping idle speed (between 600-1200 rpm) that would occasionally stall the car (easily started back up).Īfter that, I replaced my Idle Air Control valve which stopped the rough idle (save the occasional putt putt) but now my car would constantly run at a high idle (1600 rpm) and occasionally rebound back to normal idles which would sometimes cause the car to stall.Ī few days ago the problems reached an all time high when my car dumped out all of its transmission fluid. I have since replaced the main PCV Valve elbow hose (not the valve itself, that's my next step) because it was collapsed.
