Answer
Try to get maintenance records.When was the last time the timing belt/change was done?Did it get regular service(oil changes, tune ups, etc.)Have you ran a carfax to make sure about the title?The Ford Taurus is a great car with one exception,the transmissions.Also,look to see how much blow-by is coming out of the PCV to get a feel for the rings.
