running out of gas? is it carburated?
Assuming that you aren't over-heating, check the fuel pump. My 1999 Taurus used to stall/ refuse to start when it was hot due to a faulty pump.
I'm no mechanic, BUT that happened on my Taurus when the fuel pump was not functioning properly. Best to take it in.
Your charging system has failed, probably the alternator.
The idle for the 97 Taurus could be too low. The transmission bands could be sticking some as well, not allowing the transmission to come out of gear during idling.
Check tha idle speed control solonoid.
overheating it would. Or if it was stick not being in the right gear trying to find the system causing it would help, if the air intake or filter was so clogged it couldn't suck air it could stall, and low fuel pressure could also make it stall rather slowly. Bad electrical connections could cause a quicker stall.
You would be on the Aries-Taurus cusp.
could be that the choke is not adjusted right
A person should be able to trouble shoot problems in a car. A vehicle would stall out after starting because of a failure in the fuel system, or it could be a bad O2 sensor.
Born 13th of May you are Taurus in the western zodiac and Beaver in the Amerind earth magic zodiac.
check the crank shaft sensor MAP, CRANKSHAFT, CAMSHAFT SENSOR THE COMBINATION OF THOSE SENSORS WILL LET THE CAR RUN RIGHT AND NOT STALL ANY MORE
