sound like problem with the EVAP SYSTEM.HAVE CHECK OUT. trick to pumping gas dont stick fuel spout all the way in hold it back a little then pump gas the gas vapors stored in fuel tank stopping you from pumping gas.hold spout back pump gas.
Inside gas tank. Need to drop tank. You also need a special tool to release sending unit from fuel lines. I would get the whole unit not just the pump.
The idling setting in the car is not set correctly or the idling is LOW due to fault in the setting.
You will need to check if the throttle position is correct and the idle setting WITH THE CLUTCH PRESSED must be of the CORRECT IDLING RPM. If not reset the position after cleaning the system.
auto tech for 15 years you have a crack on the fuel pump return line on the fuel pump assemble I have done many Taurus with the same problem the fuel puddles up on top of the tank and smells bad replace the whole fuel pump assemble and the smell will go away.
The fuel pumps don't like to be run out of gas. They use the gas in the tank to stay cool. I would bet you ruined the fuel pump especially if you have never changed the fuel filter.
Try this. With the car in park have somebody crank the car over while you smack the fuel tank with a rubber mallet about dead center and a little to the rear of the tank. If the car starts you will be replacing the fuel pump. Don't wait for it to stop running again. This is a do it yourself trick to see if the fuel pump is bad and is not a repair!
