possibly the bearings in the water pump,but that should have been replaced when the timing belt was done,because of the work involved

your code is or the following. Fuel Pump Secondary Circuit Malfunction. This may involve removing your gas tank to fix. Go to the parts store and they can get you the parts you need and let you know for sure.

SOURCE: P0136, P1131, and P1151 codes on Ford Expedition 2000 4.6L

Your auto has four O2 sensors. Two upstream and two downstream; With two banks. Bank 1, sensor 1...and bank 2, sensor 1 are the two upstream (exhaust manifold before the catalytic). Bank 1, sensor 2 and bank 2, sensor 2 (other side of catalytic)

Code 1131= upstream; bank 1..sensor 1
Code 1151= upstream; bank 2..sensor 1
Code P0136 (generic code) bank 1..sensor 2 (questionable)

I wouldn't spend the money to purchase 3 sensors. Highly unlikely all three are bad; Cost is about $40/ ea.
Since there isn't a code for the cat's themselves, I would suspect the O2 circuit is malfunctioning. The rough idle is another clue.


Take an ohmmeter set it on X10 scale and measure the resistance from engine to body and body to negative post on battery terminal. You should read zero ohms (full needle deflection). If you do go buy two upstream O2 sensors. If you read
open or a high resistance run two straps from eng. to body...and body to neg.batt. post.

I have a 2002 Grand am Gt 3400 engine.. Car ran fine, no problems..Went out to start it one afternoon and engine clattered very badly..so i turned it off right away.. took off the valve cover and i did...

The engine needs to be replaced. Clatter can be the main and rod bearings or the lifters. Lifters clatter with no oil pressure. Low or no oil pressure is usually bearings. Oil pumps rarely go bad, they are a very simple set up And work forever. I have never replaced a pump because it was bad. And running an engine for 30 seconds would not do that kind of damage. But running a long time low on oil will.

2006 Ford Taurus SE, Engine light...over 100,000 miles, oil and coolant levels are fine, air filter ok as well.....Runs like it wants to quit, extremely rough......

Stop by a local parts store and have them do a FREE OBII scan (fault scan) There's many things "it could be" but have the scan done so you know exactly what needs attention. The scan will identify what triggered light.

2006 ford taurus sel ++ rough idle tack runs high as well. what should the tacometer read at idle speed?

If the check engine light is on, take the car to an autoparts store and have them scan the computer for any faulty codes that it has stored. Most parts stores will do the scan for free. It sounds like a faulty idle air control valve, but getting the codes will identify what faults the computer has noted and in what systems. Hope this helped and best wishes.

I need a list of the EGR/Trouble codes for a 1994 Ford SHO Taurus

Sounds like the catalytic converter has gone bad. What happens is you car as you drive will lose power, smell like rotten eggs and stall out. The reason is, the cat. is plugged up and cannot let the exhaust out of the tail pipe like it should. The exhaust is staying in the engine causing it to stall out and loose pwer.
