1986 Lincoln Town Car Maintenance

When it comes to your Lincoln Town Car, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Town Car. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Town Car maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 1986 Lincoln Town Car maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Lincoln themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Town Car running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 1986 Lincoln Town Car problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1986 Lincoln Town Car and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Town Car. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1986 Lincoln Town Car? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Lincoln Town Car battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Town Car) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Lincoln Town Car won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1986 Lincoln Town Car engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1986 Town Car. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1986 Lincoln Town Car.
