There has to be some info stored with this behaviour so a better code reading may be required. Act fast and probably too late but for now I suspect an exhaust restriction, probably a destroyed converter to test at least. Saw you other post on trans thunking like you've been bumped from behind and if engine is that confused the trans isn't going to like that either IMO so it's probably one issue and I'd take on the flooding first and probably solve both, T Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jan 25, 2012, 12:41 PM Post #3 of 3 (1716 views) Re: 97 Taurus floods and misses Sign In Pull the vacuum hose off the fuel pressure regulator and see if there is any fuel in the hose to indicate a leaking regulator. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
