Is the transmission from a '92 Ford Tempo compatible with a '94 Ford Taurus?

My transmission went out on my 1994 Ford Taurus and I can get a 1992 Ford Tempo transmission for a much cheaper price. I would please like to know if they are compatible. Thanks so much in advance!

These cars are ready for the melter. Your wasting your time.

Not even close.

The ATX slushbox would work on a four-cylinder Taurus, maybe -- but you don't have one, since Ford quit dropping four-bangers into Tauri after '91. Sorry.

  • Where is the trunk safety release on a Ford Tempo? Mine doesn't have the release buttons in the glovebox and when I bought it the trunk wouldn't open. I got the back seat out but there's so much garbage and so little room I'm trying not to sift through all of it to find the safety release, does anyone know exactly where it's located?
  • Transmission on 93 ford tempo? It's a 2.3 HSC. Can i drop the trans separately, or do i need to pull engine and trans together? Never done a tempo before, Reverse is gone in it, so assuming i need to change whole trans unless someone has another suggestion?
  • Will a 2006 taurus auto transmission fit a 2004 ford taurus? I have a 2004 ford taurus with an auto transmission. At first it was jumping out of overdrive, now it won't go in to overdrive and it slips.
  • What would be a compatible transmission for a '94 Ford Taurus? So far I haven't been able to locate a transmission of the same year and make here in my small town. ** I'm a college student and can't afford much, other than to get my car fixed.
