Have a shop run a fuel pressure leak down test and have the engine coolant temperature sensor checked for proper colds engine value, if it is reading wrong for any reason then it can starve for fuel cold and it makes it hard to start.

2001 3.0L Ford Taurus sel looking for the temperature sensor the videos I see that the gauge sensor and a temperature sensor or together the car I have it's not like this separate it which one is it?

i didnt know that the 2000 ford taurus still had a distributor on it? i thought it just had a coil pack that was told to fire by the crank or cam sensor

Hello,

The coolant sensor in the 2000 ford taurus is located on the bottom of the coolant reservoir.

You will see two wire connector protruding towards the fender-side.

It is built into the reservoir tank bottom so if it needs a rplacement the whole unit has to be replaced.


Thanks for using fixya.

just to the right of the thermostat. there are two similar looking sensors side by side. Match up the wire connection on the new ECT sensor to the existing sensor. This will help you determine which of the two sensors is the correct. Then you can remove the faulty sensor and replace.

Yes a sensor will cause this also just a fuse replacement can correct this for you.. follow the hose from the radiator cap to the block, some are located there, also some built in to the radiator itself.. lower day tank on the bottom of the radiator.usually two wires + and -

if the coolant is full you need to check and most likly change the low level sensor in the coolant tank.

the low coolant sensor is bad needs replaced
