For both 3.8 Liter engines, there is a very real likelyhood of head gasket failure.Option #4: (Super Coupe) Supercharged 3.8 Liter V6 with manual 5-speed transmission Option #3: (Super Coupe) Supercharged 3.8 Liter V6 with electronically controlled auto Option #2: (LX) 4.6 Liter V8, SOHC (Single Over Head Cam), n/a with an electronically controlled auto Option #1: (LX) 3.8 Liter V6, n/a (naturally aspirated) with an electronically controlled automatic transmission In '94 there were basically 3 different options for engine and 2 for transmission. You should have no concerns about getting and driving the car. Any advice? Also, if I do buy the car, is there any preventative maintenance I should do right away?
I'm willing to learn, but I was thinking just as you don't start learning math with differential equations maybe I shouldn't start learning to wrench on a 94 Thunderbird? This car would be my daily driver. How reliable are these cars? Any clue as to the frequency with which these problems occur? I can change my own oil but overall am not too great with a wrench. I hear a lot about transmission woes and heater coil troubles, both of which can be big fixes required either a lot of time or a lot of cash or both. After reading this forums and other places I am a bit concerned. She is a little old lady who only drove it to church on Sunday and the car has only 17,000 miles!!!!! Plus she only wants $800 fo it!!! Granted, I haven't seen what condition it is in yet.ĭespite the low milage and inherent coolness of the car I am concerned about reliability. What I do know is this: My father's friend's mother cannot drive anymore and wants to sell her car. I don't know the specifics of the engine/tranny combo of the one I am going to look at. I am considering purchasing a 1994 Ford Thunderbird tomorrow.
