Hello. I posted this ?. I found that when I checked the coil voltage in the start position, there was none. So I jumped the coil to the battery and the car started and ran in the run position without the jumper wire. There me be a bad wire somewhere. I installed a momentary switch to the coil for starting. Still curious about whats really wrong. Hope this will someday help someone else...

Why is 1993 Ford Taurus hard to start when cold?

The first thing to check is the spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap and rotor. Failing spark plugs/ wires are a common cause for a poor cold start condition. There may be a problem with the coolant temperature sensor. Have the sensor checked and the vehicle scanned, but don't over look the basics.
