I have a 92 Ford Taurus 3.0 6Cyl. I can drive it until it gets hot and then
it doesn't want to go in drive if i stop at a stop sign or light. If I put
it in netural and back in drive it will go until I have to stop again.As
long as I'm on the high way I have no problem only when I have to stop.Can
someone give me an idea. Thank you

Check your transmission fluid, better yet.. have it serviced. Hope you are
low on fluid, that's an ominous sign.

Yes the AT Dipstick is very hard to find between the engine and firewall
angled to driver's side.

Check hot, running in Park.. should be clear and not smell 'burnt'
DO NOT OVERFILL

I'm not trans mechanic, so take this for what it's worth. Smile

IIRC 1992 was the first year that the transaxle on the Taurus was
electronically controlled. Have you checked the engine codes? Something
like a Manual Lever Position Switch (formerly known as a neutral switch, or
backup light switch) could perhaps cause that. I do know that some
sensor/switch malfunctions will show up on an engine code scan. It's worth
a try.
