there is a book called the car that saved ford, they use to have it on TCCA but it was taken down. i read through a bunch of it and it was a good read for a taurus nut such as myself.

FYI the 3.8 head gaskets were revised by felpro so once you replace them they are set for the life of the car.

i coudl go on for days about mistakes in production and in management and engineering that hurt the car 🙂
