95 Taurus GL Wagon
V6-182 3.0L OHV

I am a girl and generally have no idea what you will be talking about but can pass any info on to someone that does so be kind!

has not stalled while driving but after driving to the point of the engine getting heated up and turning the car off for a short time it will either turn over momentarily and then sputter back out or wont turn over and click click click sound. Turns right over with a jump (new Battery) dies while idling then other times will drive forever without problems.
Any ideas? Need more info?
