Songbird refers to a group of birds, such as bluebirds, mockingbirds, cardinals, and buntings. So yes, it means a certain type of bird, but there is no specific bird called the songbird.

It depends if you get a motor only or the complete assembly. Disconnect the electrical connecter and remove the 4 retaining bolts and remove the fan assembly. Be careful not to hit the radiator.

There was a contest to name the car somewhere in the 50's to mid 50's. Mom said she was about 7yrs or 8yrs old. My great grandmother Joe Lee Thomas (having a Indian / Afro American heritage ) thought up name name Thunderbird and submitted it. The winner was to receive a cash award of more that $500.(The exact amount I'm not sure.) The name she chose had won. Unfortunately, back in those days it may have been an image issue for it to be known a Black female had given this car the winning name. Not to be completely slighted, an award was given to her. It was not the award that was expected but a compensation all the same. At the tune of 500 bitties it was. Baby chickens that is! They had to be kept inside for a bit as it was cold and a facility had to be made to accommodate them. In the mean time ,Muh as she was called, (short for mother I believe) kept them warm inside in front of a warm stove. Mom says she can still hear the chirping in her head as she thinks back to this time . Needless to say , the credit and money went else where. Due to the fact that this is well known Verbal History for this area, the details may vary from family to family depending on which generation you ask but the facts are all remain the same.

Depending on the engine. On a 4.6 Liter V8 there are 4 sensors 2 upstream and 2 downstream. The 2 upstream sensor's are located before the catalytic converters one on the left side pipe and one on the right side pipe. The 2 down stream sensors are located behind the catalytic converters one on the left side pipe and. one on the right side pipe. The best way to change these is to have the car on a hoist. I have changed mine using a floor jack and jack stands, it's a little tight but you can change them that way.

It is in the steering column, right behind the lock cylinder. (where you put the key in to start) You have to take the molding off of the lower column. Loosen four bolts to drop the clomn down. Romove lock cylinder. Undo wiring harness to ignition switch. Remove the two screws mounting swith and replace. The switch should come pre set to on position. Wich the lock cylinder has to be lined up to in order to remove it. Note: the two screws that hold the ignition switch may look like rivets, but they are threaded. Take a pair of needle nose vice grips to remove them. The new switch should come with a pair of hex countersunk screws. This will make it esier to replace again if ncessary. Good luck.

Most vehicles will require that you lift the engine to remove/replace the oil pan. You can usually get enough distance if you just disconnect the motor mounts and lift the engine 6 or 8 inches. You probably won't need to disconnect the transmission, electrical or any of the hoses if you do it that way. Otherwise you'll need to completely remove the engine and that is a bit of trouble.
Not sure about all years, but I have a '97 that I am, in fact, currently working on. You have to drop the exhaust (4 bolts holding a Y-shaped pipe to the manifold). The front two bolts are difficult, but you can get a wrench on them. The back two, however, I have yet to get a wrench on them. Sizes are weird, too. For instance, the front seems to be 23/32 and the rear a 19/32. But I'm not sure -- I'm going to a tool shop now and taking some bolts with me to see if I can match it up. I can tell you the rear bolts will have to be removed with a wobble socket, because there's no way to put a socket straight on them, and there's such limited movement around the nuts that I doubt Hercules could losen them because it would have to be done with the wrist alone. When you get the oil pan off, I do know the gasket must be siliconed in at four locations. Anyway, I would suggest purchasing a good manual on your year of Taurus. And if you decide to do it, be ready to mutter obscenities and get very grimey.

You need a manual to acquaint you with your car and tell you how it is done. Get one from DISCOUNTAUTOREPAIRMANUALS.COM.
The manual with really help... but it isn't that difficult. The starter is located underneath the engine about in the middle. It's best if you hoist up the car and use jack stands for safety. Remove battery ground (negative terminal) cable. There are two 13mm bolts that hold the starter motor to the engine. You may need to remove an oxygen sensor if it's in your way. Otherwise, remove starter cable (red) from the starter motor and then remove two bolts.
To install, repeat the following in reverse order. Torque specs on the starter motor bolts is 20-27 Nm (15-20 lb-ft), and starter motor cable 8-12.4 Nm (70-110 lb-in).

You have to remove the transmission pan. Jack the car up and then place jack stands under the car for safety. Then looking up at the transmission you will see the pan there are bolts holding the pan to the housing remove the bolts and the pan will drop off this will let about 4 quarts out there is also a filter in the valve body that has to be replaced. Be careful with the pan gasket it is reusable. This can get pretty messy when the pan drops so hold the pan and do not let it fall when removing. A trick I use is to take a electric oil pump used for removing oil on boat engines (cost $12.00 JC Whitney) and remove almost all the oil out through the fill tube that way when you drop the pan the remaining stays in pan and does not splatter all over you. when replacing the pan and gasket another trick is to get four (3 ) inch bolts cut the heads off screw one in each corner this way when you put the pan and gasket back on this will guide the pan an keep the gasket from moving. Hope this helps.
