Q: To answer the question about my 1995 ford taurus stalling out in summer?
In answer to the reply I got about having the ford taurus for 5 years, and feel lucky it ran that long . I have had the car since it was new 13 years ago. This is the only major problem out of warranty that I have encountered with it. I neglected to say that when it stalls out, there is a strong gas smell from under the hood.

A: it sounds like the fuel lines are starting to collapse. they are made of plastic and with the heat they become fragile. now add the age of the car. that would cause it to stall. i would suggest that you inspect the fuel lines for wear and tear. if you do not feel safe inspecting your car, take it to a mechanic( it does not have to be one from a dealer) who can inspect and fix the problem.(ase certified preferred)

Q: Can i swap out a manual headlights control in a 1997 ford taurus gl to an autolamp control?
I have a 1997 ford taurus gl that has the manual headlight control (when you have to turn the lights on manually) and i noticed some models have autolamp. Is there a possibility you can swap out a manual headlight control to an autolamp one? If you can does it require extra wiring? Thanks for your answers.

A: It would require a dash harness, as there is a light sensor involved in the circuit as well. But there are Ford kits, as well as aftermarket kits, to do this much more easily and cheaply.
The Ford kit takes about 20 minutes to install, and works well.

Q: How to fix a deflating tire on a ford taurus 2002?

A: I’ve been a Mechanic for over 20 years

You have 2 choices, you can either take the car down to your local tire shop and have them check it out and fix it on the cheap, or you can go buy a can of Fix a Flat at autozone or your local store.

It’s a simple fix for a professional, your mechanic is obviously not a professional.

Q: How well do the back seats in a ford taurus wagon fold down? Could I sleep in it?
I am going on a coast to coast drive, while I will typically stay in a campground or hotel I want the option to pull over into a truck stopp or 24 hr walmart and catch a short night of sleep.

By having the wagon save use some money as well.

Q: What could i do to make my 2001 Ford Taurus SES considerably faster?
I really like my Ford Taurus. Its in great shape and i like the body style. However my one problem is that it only has 155 Horsepower. I want to keep it but i would like to make it faster. Is there anything i can do, any kits or anything i can get that will make my good car into a great car?

A: Cold Air intake – ~$300
10%+
Exhaust – ~$500
5%+
Hi perf Ignition – ~$250
5%+
Re-Chip computer (or reprogram) ~$750
15%+

So, 30% after all this, you can get about 200HP which is respectable.

THEN, if you really want to get creative – Supercharger: ~$2000.00 and about 50-100hp
But you’d better get better tires after all this or you’re a dead man. You need more meat on the road to stay on the road.

Q: How to put more than one disc in 05 Ford Taurus car cd player?
On my car, it says “Tune” and then under it, it says “Disc 1-6″. I assume that means that you can have 6 cds in the player at once. I just don’t know how to do that. I have a 2005 Ford Taurus SE.

Q: How much does a rear bumper for a 2003 ford taurus cost?
I have a 2003 ford taurus and was wondering how much a brand new rear bumper for it would cost?

Q: Is a Ford Taurus transmission compatible with a Ford Windstar? Will it fit and is it the same?
Will a Ford Taurus transmission fit into a Ford Windstar? Is the transmission the same if the part is the same year?

A: Both posts stating or implying the Taurus is a rear-wheel-drive are incorrect. Don’t know what year Taurus or Windstar you are referring to, but I know the Windstars from model years 1995 to 2000, used the AX4S transaxle. Model years 2001 to 2003 Windstars used the AX4N. Tauruses however used BOTH from 1996 to current. It may BOLT in. Whether or not, there are internal differences, I don’t know, or at the VERY least, I’m not sure. You are better off searching for a unit that came from an identical model year and vehicle if you’re not sure.
