I cant find the ignition module for my 95 ford taurus 3.8 engine its not on the distributer like it is supossed to be

Clean your battery cables and clean the power distribution box cable and check the fuses and relays to see if they might be loose for the ECM(POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE),IGNITION COILS,FUEL INJECTION AND OTHER ENGINE MANAGEMENT FUSES AND RELAYS

you may want to check magnetic pickup in distributer.

CHECK AT CRUZ CONTROL MOD OUTSIDE BOX IS IGN .MOD

check your distributor and cables connected to tansmission

Go to your local Napa store, they should be able to print you out a belt routing diagram.

the taurus uses a "thin film" ignition module located on the side of the distributor where it touches the distributor there is a film of heat transfer paste to keep the module cool this paste dries out and, the module heats up and, you have a "no start" until the module cools
the paste is availlible from Ford or, radio shack

Check your coil wire if not change your module inside the distributer.

i would say module but havent a clue where it be ,never seen one of these cars before here in spain ,module could be inside distributor or under the coil or mounted somewhere else around the engine compartment

Just replace the module

It is most likely the TFI ignition module, replace it, don't use anything but the FORD part, the aftermarket modules are very poor quality, I have done hundreds of TFI"s and know this for a fact.
