Car will not start when parked on and incline of about
20 degrees. I could be a little4 wrong on degrees but the driveway is fairly steep. I know of three other FORDs of the 06 and 07 modewl that exhibit the same problems. Can you guress why? Thanks

I know the answer, the Ford people tell me the pickup tube in the TAURUS is at the front of the gas tank and if the tank is sonmewhat low, it will not feed pump if incline is steep enough. W. MORING
