Starts right up. Cannot be driven more than a few hundred feet until the front left brake control valve is replaced. That component failed, brake caliper locked up, fluid leaked and caught fire. So you must have hauled or towed to it's destination at the your expense. I am also not a mechanic and cannot answer those type of questions. Local Lincoln dealership says it needs a brake control valve, brake hose, and shock absorber.
