Hi. I have a '94 Crown Vic w/140300 miles. The driver's side door hangs when open, and I must lift it up to close it. What's the possible reasons, and might it be a simple thing to fix? Thanks.

Sounds like your door hinge bushings are bad. You can pick them up at your local auto parts store. Use a punch and hammer to knock them out. Tap the new ones in. Sometimes its easier to remove the door.
