all black wire are ground wires.all wires of color are hot wires ,meaning they are connected to the positive side of the battery.

You will need to do a lot more than carbie work to get more than a limited power increase. For example, you can shove as much fuel and air into the engine as you like, but if the exhaust doesn't allow the lot to get out, you achieve nothing.

Be sure you have run a quality carburetor cleaner through your fuel system...also fresh plugs, spark plug wires, and replace ALL air filters and clean passages...this is the least costly performance enhancement...Hope this helps.

what type of truck is it? and unplug the fuel pump. so the truck will crank but wont start.

It is not changed by RPM, it is just felt less.

please contact Your local Auto parts Store or even local Auto Mech. They should be able to Assist You with all Your Issues..

the headlamp is held in place by four bolts, first remove the bulbs and tie the wiring back so not in the way ,ther are two bolt on top of headlight through the front top panel and two bolts 1 either side of light ,lift away forwards

is water pump ok ?

There is a routine called a "cold start routine" which is triggered by water temperature sensors or oxygen sensors.. The routine changes the fuel mix and the timing for a few minutes until the sensors warm. Then everything changes back to a lean run condition.Most likely the computer is not getting the reset signal.

Look in your owners manual to see if there is a code in there for unlocking the radio and instructions for unlocking procedures. If the code is not in there, I would suggest going to a Ford dealer and tell him what happened and they can provide you the unlock code and/or help you get the radio unlocked. And when it has happened to me in the past, there was no charge.Good luck

engine number has no relation to date of manufacture. you will have to talk to a dealer to find out when the engine was assembled

This could be two different issues. For the dash light get the vehicle plugged into an OBD scanner or a diagnostic system to check for Trouble Codes. These will give clues as to what and where the issue could be. Comment below with them and I'l try to help explain them. Unless the problem is with the brake booster most traction control systems do not use a vacuum to operate it. It is usually a set of electronic sensors on the wheels that the ECU uses to monitor tyre grip. As I cannot look at the car myself for that hose you will need to get a good mechanic to look at it. The vacuum hose could go to many things like the EGR system, the Turbo (if fitted) or possibly to the transmission.

Only way to get the code is dealership or someone with a radio programmer aka auto scanner

limited info generic answer ----if wiring request is for the vehicle [chassie etc]look up a repair manual for the van---if for the rv try dealer --rv shops --online forums --using the sub-model [rv model series ]

This will sound a bit silly and obvious but have you tried a new battery in the transponder key? Sometimes the fix is that easy. Have you had the vehicle plugged into an OBD scanner or a diagnostic system? Dashboard codes are commonly a bit vague about what the issue is. A Code 24 simply comes up as 'an Immobiliser issue' and thats all you get. The OBD scan will also tell you if there are any other issues with any of the other sensors on the engine. Comment below with any trouble codes you get and I'll try to help you more.

Try and lock up the vehicle withe the key fob. Leave for 20 minutes and until lock with the key fob and try to start in usual way.

According to this yes it does. https://www.google.com/search?q=2000+ford+taurus+se+pats+module ..

Those are all lean codes. I would verrify that you have proper fuel pressure at the rail. If so, I would look for a vaccum leak.
