Driver side Headlight Uneven
so i did my best to look up this problem but cant find something close to make sense to me. so on 1990 Fc i replace my driver side headlight and now its uneven when its closed its a little popped up and when it goes up its slower than the other side and it doesnt go up all the way I took off the fuse and manually closed it but when i put back the fuse it pops open a little could it be the connector to the motor i havent check just want more under standing

There is a little plastic bushing that goes on the headlight housing that that the actuator arm connects to. They like to break.
Flip the lights down and see if you can push the offending light all the way down by slightly pressing on. If so, thats most likely your issue.

I can push it down but it takes some effort but if I push on the corner where it meets the it flexs well if it is my bushing do you know where I can get one junk yards ate out of the question since there was only on FC witch I took the headlight from it

shouldnt take much effort if the bushing is missing. Look where the the actuator arm connects to the side of the housing. Is the arm just sitting on a metal nub or is there a little plastic bushing there.
I am not sure where you can get one if thats what you are missing.
