'02 Taurus Misses, Now Cuts out Sign In

The engine on my 2002 Ford Taurus was having a bit of trouble maintaining a consistent RPM level when idle and now it only starts then turns right off, unless I rev the engine it will stay on, but as soon as I switch gears it turns off.

Any help?

I wish I had an easy answer for your question; if I did it would make my working life much better/easier. But there are so many things that it could be that I could likely fill the screen with text listing all the possibilities.
Take the car in and have it diagnosed; post back with there results and maybe we could help you with the actual repair if you plan on doing it yourself.

The first thing to check is the idle speed control motor. If it is stuck, the vehicle will not idle.



Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds
