I am able to answer my "own" guestion, after taking my car in for repair at my local Ford Dealership. Ford first check to ensure fuel pressure is good and it was. They found a problem with idle air control valve. It sits right on top of the engine. It must be replaced can't be fixed or repaired.Ford part number cx-1854 (f68z-9f715-eb valve)

Where is the heater control valve located on a Taurus - Sable?

There is not a valve that regulates the flow of coolant through the heater core. The Taurus/Sables never had one like that.Coolant flows through the heater core at all times, no matter the temperature setting.Temperature adjustments are made by controlling how much air flows through the always hot heater core, by the opening and closing of a damper-type door inside the ductwork.This temperature blend door is controlled by:1986-about 1995 - A stiff wire cable from the dash control to the door1996 and newer - a small electric actuator motor that positions the temperature blend door inside the ductwork.NOTE: this parts has a high failure rate, but is an easy do-it-yourself repair.For a very comprehensive listing listing of various problems that can happen with the heating system on Taurus/Sables, check out the various "Related Questions" below.AnswerThe Taurus does not have a heater control valve.No control valve is needed as the engine coolant flows through the heater core all the time.Temperature adjustment is done with a wire cable from the front control knob / slide control to a door inside the ductwork. This door controls the flow of the air through the heatercore - the more air moving through the core, the hotter the air being blown into the car.With the total redesign of the Taurus/Sables in 1996, Ford changed from cable connections to a small electric actuator motor to control the temperature blend door.The Taurus does not have a heater control valve.
