1987 Lincoln Mark VII V8 Two Wheel Drive Manual
Hi, thanks to all that have helped in the past. The owner has taken it to the dealer when the suspension warning lights comes on but it always goes off by the time they get to the shop. Dealer says they cant test it unless light stays on. For some reason the front drivers side air bag doesnt always pump up. It wont inflate and then all of a sudden it will air up. The other 3 seem to work fine. Hope you can help with one. TY Dennis

Most likely theres a leak in the air springs. I recommend getting it pumped up one last time, then leak test it:
