I have 2 little problems with my taurus. It is a 3.0 vulcan taurus with 135.000 miles.
The first problem is kind of weird. For some reason after I finish refueling my car, when I try to start it, It will idle rough and usually will shut down, After restarting it for the second time it will continue idling rough for about a minute or until I increase the rpm to about 2000 for 10 seconds. After this the car will run OK until the next time I have to refuel. I tried to shut down the car,open the fuel cap, close it again and start the car and nothing. Only does it when I fill up the tank. Any Ideas.
My second problem is easier, when I try to use the heater in the hot position it blows hot air for the first minute and then starts to blow cold air(exterior temperature). The ac works perfect. Any Ideas
