this car is a nightmare mechanically,i had a 2000 taurus and it isnt worth a nickle, if you arent paying on it get it running and dump it, from the heater core to theheads cracking to the transmission it will haunt you with issues, fixed the same vacuum hose on mine never knew where it went, good luck
Have the system flushed one section at a time. ie heater core, motor, rad. Forward and reverse flush. Reassemble the system, then bleed the air out. Then restrict the bypass tube. Don't block it, though. I had the same thing done to my 2000 Taurus SE and it's HOT.
If you flush the system all assembled, the sediment just moves around.
Best of Luck.
Please check your control valve it is operates on vaccum to pull the valve open,and it will before your heater core, most likey it will be under the dash,
Taurus doesn't have what is called a heater control valve,are you reffering to the remote climate control module,the one that the vacuum lines hook to? If so it is behind the glove box. Just open the glove box and press the 2 clips on the sides so it opens all the way up and it will be located right behind this.
You can flush the heater by using a garden hose through inlet of the heater sore and flushing it out through the outlet of the heater core ...Please use remove the heater core before flushing it ...
