Nathan I can’t thank you enough for the excellent video. You get jammed up with your thoughts and worry about time but I understand. lol.. You have such a knowledge of the information and you explain it so superbly. I have learned so much. I have a 68 Lincoln Continental 4 door/ 462 engine my parents had when I was nine years old and they gave it to me shortly before they passed. Anyway it is in wonderful shape, they took very great care of it. But time gets by and things deteriorate. So thank you! I really learn from all your information. Keep them coming.
Great videos, thank you for sharing! I am in the middle of a full restoration of my 64 continental that has been a project and a half for me. These videos have been life savers!
The mechanic left all of my vacume hoses off of my 64 Lincoln convertable. No heat. breaks wouldn't stop my car.. i found at least 5 of them. Breaks work fine now. But the engine has a miss. Dont know if that is vacume related? What a nightmare. Your video will help me locate some of the hard to see areas. Thankyou for putting this video together!!. Much appreciated!.
Holy crap Christmas came early this year in form of your 3 videos. And your working on a ‘65 just like my project?! Perfect, keep them coming sir. Any lil video you have is greatly appreciated and sooo helpful to us out here trying to learn on our own
Just purchased my 64' a few months ago and just starting to work on the vacuum system. Looking to redo all the lines and hopefully the CHECK VALVES if i can find them Thanks for the content
Just started on a 64- every single vacuum driven item in the car works except for the door lock UP. All of the locks will lock DOWN but not back UP. Any suggestions on where to start with fixing the UP movement?
Ok.. so im curious if you know of a company that sells vacuum hose kits for 63 ? Hardtop .. also a color diagram ? I bought a awesome color coded wiring diagram that includes convertible but no vacuum ☹️
One of the best line "color coding" you can get is to grab a large multi phone line copper cable. Most of these are 50+ copper line. Each little copper wire is color coded and can not only be used to mark the vacuum line, but can be used as a twist tie to hold vacuum lines in place. Just ask any phone company guy if they can give you a 1 foot chunk or so from a copper to fiber optic replacement line.
Awesome. So how about the actuators? Do they hold up or do they need to be replaced? My car is a 63' car. Dude this video is amazing. Seriously. There is nothing out there like this. Actually, the old heads that used to work on these cars are almost all gone. This may not be exactly like my car and I am still willing to try this. Also, I think I may have inadvertently disconnected some hoses myself. My car stalls when put in DRIVE. I had no idea about the vacuum hoses. I just learned a little about this. I would like to know what type of oil and how many quarts you use? Also, what type of gas do you use, and if you use additives in your fuel? Finally, have you made any window switch, seat switch, circuit, and relay videos? You explain things really well. Thanks.
I continue to watch your videos for my issues on the Lincoln. Thanks for posting them. Have you ever had issues with the emergency brake release motor hissing when putting the car in drive or reverse? I think it’s the emergency brake motor but don’t seem like there are replacement parts out there for it
Thanks again Nathan for all your hard work on these videos. I have a 64 for I'm hearing a hissing noise coming from my shifter. If I play with it the noise goes away and when the car is shifted into gear it hisses, any ideas?
There is a vacuum line going through the neutral safety switch located near the bottom of the steering column. It goes to the parking brake and automatically disengages the brake when the car is put into gear. Follow those lines. One has fallen off or is cracked.
is their any way to get a hold of you Nathan? It is damn near IMPOSSIBLE to get anybody to work on my 69 suicide , bought it as a project before actually doing my home work , didn't realize this car was ahead of its time ! 😬

Speaking of lines, is there a company out there that makes pre formed brake lines?

Any chance you can post the part #s or links of where you get your spools of lines from?
Look up gates vacuum lines on Ebay or Amazon. Get the reinforced ones for the larger size.
Thanks!

Hey also Nathan, was it 5/32 or 7/32 for the smaller lines to the actuators?
