Gear oil should be changed every 4,000 to 5,000 miles. Motor oil should be changed every 3,000 miles to keep the engine running clean.
Always use premium fuel for any car that has fuel-injection, it will start & run better & get the same miles per dollar of gas. Premium fuel helps keep the injectors clean. Use Castrol GTX multigrade oil & always use a fresh air cleaner. Our '95 Taurus has 145,000 miles on it & has been almost trouble-free. Also have the fuelpump tested, it may be weak (it's mounted inside the gastank).
If you have 100k miles or more you should do it. 100k miles is usually a good mileage to do it on any car. For specifics you should call the dealership.
There is no real average. I have seen them last 200,000 miles and I have seen them fail in 50,000 miles. I would say they should easily last 100,000 miles or more.
The Taurus SHO has a timing belt that must be replaced every 100,000 miles. All other Ford Taurus's have a chain that should last the life of the engine.
