Car Forum / Ford / Ford Cars / April 20041990 Ford Taurus Stalling
I have a 1990 Ford Taurus L (3.0L V6). Recently it just stalls. It doesn't matter where I am or what the temp. it dies when I am at a complete stop and hit the gas to accelerate. I am almost certain it isn't the fuel pump. I read an article about a guy who had a 1989 with the same problem and it was his throtle-body. It was really dirty. I looked on my car and I don't see a throttle-body, unless I am completely blind. Someone help me I live in the country and need a car for travel badly and this car, as much as I love it, is not in my good books right now. Anybody who can reply please send to my E-mail: maguslives@hotmail.com I appreciate those who help. Thank you > I have a 1990 Ford Taurus L (3.0L V6). Recently it just stalls.

You are a GODSEND! jim I appreciate it soooo much no more stalling, works great. Now I just have to fix this overheating problem. Ha, one thing after another. But, thank you very much. Fast reply to. I can't say thank you enough. |
