i have a 2000 ford taurus ffv model.the problem i have with it is.when i drive it for about 30-45 minutes the idle goes way down (tach shows



4-7)like it is going to stall.the more gas you give it doesnt change anything.and when it does stall if i let it set for about 30-1 hour it starts right up and drives fine till it start again...i have been told it is the coolant tempature sensor,intake air temp sensor,or a dirty injectors....if it is a coolant sensor or intake sensor where do i start to look to find these sensors on my car?and is this the problem any info will help...thanks a bunch

Miles?

Check your fuel pressure at the rail. Fuel filter, regulator, pump, probably in that order if the pressure is falling below 25 psi... should be 35-40, optimally... I would think.
