You need the engine control computer scanned by a dealer for faults, this is absolutely essential to figure out what is wrong here.

well..fuel injection systems are more than the electronic part. I suspect you are dealing with compression or injector fouling issues..

TDC has marks on the pulleys and engine block to line up, best bet is to get a haynes manual to show you exactly where. Too complacated to explain where they are on this

SOURCE: My 2000 Ford Ranger keeps showing codes PO 171 and

These codes mean that the oxygen sensor is reading too "Lean" on both the left and right cylinder banks and the engine control system can't compensate any further to solve the problem. You may have a dirty or failing Mass Airflow Sensor that is miscalcuating the amount of airflow the engine is taking in which in turn can cause both of these codes to set. If the sensor is reporting less air than the engine is actually taking in then the engine computer will add only the amount of fuel it should based on what it was told by the sensor which will cause both cylinder banks to run "lean". There could be something else going on such as having two bad oxygen sensors [very rare] but I do see these two codes together quite often and usually its the sensor that is causing it. Hope this helps a bit!

How would I repair, or diagnose a cruise control problem, with my 2007 ford Taurus wherein the cruise control will not engage when the set button is pushed

check fuse, relay, cruise control motor system, if its throttle by wire then you have to check the powertrain control module, brake switch. make sure your brake lights arent always on if they are then that is your problem

Car randomly accelerates without pushing down on pedal and cruise control is not working

It sounds to me like a problem with cruise control? Turn it off and/or unhook it, drive it a bit and see if accelerating problem goes away? If it does, you need to troubleshoot the cruise control. Any applicable trouble codes?
That sounds dangerous to me, I'd disable the cruise control till you find the problem.
I don't know what testing you have done?

Taurus 2000 cruise control

i've been told it's speed sensors. I have the same on my 1999, but my light flashes when i try to engage. And 1 out of 10 times, it engages and I can cruise. Just not worth it to me to fix. Ford never claimed there was a problem.

Cruise control not work when pressing on the set

there may be a vacuum hose disconnected or leaking. check under the hood for a leak at the c/c vacuum diaphram. probably on the left side of the engine compartment, 3-4' in diameter with connections to the throtle linkage.

Lights out on steering wheel instruments of 200 Taurus

It sounds like you have some bulbs burned out in the cluster and cruise switches. I don't think you can just replace the bulbs in the switch. You can replace bulbs in the instrument cluster.
