I own a 1988 Ford Taurus Station Wagon. I believe it is a 6 cyl. Last night it was just fine starting up and everything.. this morning it wont start. Everything comes on but the engine wont turn over. What could be the potential problems?
If the battery is dead.. how am I still getting power to the the rest of the vehicle… plus we tried jumping it off.. didnt work…

i am installing subs into my 2001 ford taurus. i have all of the wires ran except for the power wire to the amp. how do i run that to the battery? i cannot seem to find where all of the cars wires run through the firewall. does anyone have any idea. if not, where would be the best place to run the wire through the firewall?

I have a JUNKY 98 Ford Taurus. I definitley bought a lemon. Now I need to car shop but I am kind of clueless when it comes to it. I want a Honda CRV or a Toyota Rav4…something small suv-ish. The problem is that I can’t afford more than about 0/month. I don’t need a brand new 2009 car- but I also don’t want a 2000… any suggestions?

I got a 1996 Ford Taurus recently, there is a white botton on the front panel near the radio and AC bottons that I don’t know what is its duty, I pressed it few times but nothing happened, can you tell me what is this botton for?
thanks

okay so i turn 16 in november. i got offered this 1987 ford taurus. it has 40,000 miles on it and its only 0! its a teal blue and it has no rust, the color just is really dull. if i get that, how much would a paint job cost? is it a good car?
alright guys. i already brought it to a shop. he said everything is great, except something that will cost 2 to fix, the gas gauge. but everything else is in great condition

I took my car to the Ford dealership yesterday to replace the tie rods and front breaks. While he was under there he noticed that the struts were shot, but that I could wait on them for a while if I wanted. My question is (and what I forgot to ask him since I was already concentrating on that big 0 bill) how long can my car go on bad struts.

I have a 1988 Ford Taurus (only 37,000 miles) with the original suspension, so it’s not surprising that it’s finally warn out, but I’d like to put it off for a little bit.

Thanks.

Where to put freon on 2000 ford taurus ?

I started taking care of an elderly gentleman. To help me get back and forth to his home to care for him, his daughter loaned me her second car.

It’s a 1989 Ford Taurus. Blue Book on the Internet at the highest price is 0.00.

She wants to sell this car to me. She started at 00, then 00 now she’s at 0. She says she wants to get out what she put into it. That entails: new brakes, 4 used tires, a 0 compressor and a new battery.

I’ve been driving this car for 8 months. It gets me where I need to go. It has no air conditioning and where we live it’s sunshine 9 months out of the year, and can get extremely hot during summer.

I need a car, but should I pay this much for this car. It’s in okay condition, but I’m going to be putting money into it as well to bring it up to par. What do you think???

my ford taurus wont start and idle unless i hold the gas pedal. does anyone know what this means? also i need to know how to get the trouble codes from the car?

I’m 16 and own a 1991 ford taurus that stoped running a few days ago. Some old gas got suck into the carbourator, I know how to put gas in carborators, only one proublem, how in the hell do I get to it? It has a Jappiness engine and I have to open it so I can get to the damn thing. So, does anyone know how to get to a carborater on a 1991 ford taurus< or should I even bother.

Hi guys,
I have a 1999 Ford Taurus. When I turn right the steering is normal but when I turn left the steering wheel is too hard…almost impossible to turn. I check the fluid and is OK. Does anybody know whats wrong with my car?
Thanks!

1988 Ford Taurus 3.8 V6, auto with OD. The engine almost always runs without issues when driving, or when stopped with the transmission in drive or reverse. The second the transmission is shifted into neutral or park, the engine increases in RPM’s and then drops off. This cycle usually continues until the engine stops running. Sometimes it recovers and idles for a few seconds, then returns to the fluctuating RPM situation. With the transmission in park or neutral, the RPM’s fluctuate, if you put the transmission in reverse or drive, the engine usually recovers and runs at a steady continuous RPM. If the trany is shifted back into neutral or park, the RPM fluctuation starts all over again. This issue has mostly if not always occurred when the engine is at its normal operating temp. There have only been a few time this occurred with the transmission in drive. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with this type of issue?

I have a 2001 Ford Taurus Sedan, it has a 6 CD changer but no tape deck, what is the cheapest method of doing something so I can listen to iPod?

Hi let me tell you about myself
Im into Performance modifications. (not fast and furious stickers ricer crap.)
I would drive in winter,and summer
WONT BUY FOREIGN

so heres my options/ideas

Ford Taurus SHO ( yeah its a Yamaha motor) MTX only

older Ford Crown victoria 1986-94

f150 or bronco any year 86-95

Chevrolet Caprice 86-98

what are the best out of these for modification. Might i add im not racing or anything just looking for better sound ( out of the V8’s) and less rasp from the SHO

i have a 2000 ford taurus and want to put 22 inch rims but the tires will hit so is there anything i can do to lift it without doing any welding

I thinking about getting another Ford Taurus a 2010 model by next year, i have a 2005 Taurus.And it has been pretty good to me. Now when Ford came out with the 2008 Five Hundred, Oops! i meant 2008 Taurus, i was not too impressed with that model and then Ford finally came out with the 2010 Taurus! which i thinks is sharp. Now i have not test drove any, but looking at the pricing for the SHO i would not pay ,000 for no Tuarus as much as i like them. I am not a big fan of the Toyota and i Hate Hondas but i would buy the Camry before i brought a ,000 Taurus
I like the Taurus a lot but if i go to spend ,000, i`d much rather by it cousin the Lincoln MKS which i think is sharp also

As en engine ages, how fast does it’s mpg deteriorate?

I’m interested in the Ford Freestyle. Maybe 40,000miles or so. It is now called the Ford Taurus X. So why do I want the old Freestyle and not the new Taurus X?

Well, one of the biggest complaints of the Freestyle was the there was not enough engine power. So they ramped it up. Only problem, they went from 27 mpg in the 2005-2007 Freestyle to 24 mpg in the 2008-2009 Taurus X.

Does it make a difference at this point? If I buy a 2005 Freestyle does it still have 27 mpg, or has it realistically fallen to 24 mpg by now…and I might as well get a new Taurus X?

I have a 1996 ford taurus g thats has a power steering leak from the steering boot, how hard is it to fix?

I own a very old car (1988 ford taurus) and it has an automatic transmission. I’m a real freak about merging onto highways, so I usually shift it from the overdrive gear into the drive to downshift it (Pushing the pedal to the floor doesn’t always downshift it) and try to get up to speed as quickly as possible. So the question is, would this have cause my need to rebuild the transmission after 67,000 miles?
