My 05 taurus hesitates at cruising i am thinking fueling problem
2005 Ford Taurus maybe needind a recalibration of the ECM.For lack of power at highway speed,Misfire at load?low RPM also,The operation of a fuel pressure sensor is to limit voltage to the fuel pump when certain amount of fuel is not needed,and increase voltage when fuel is needed.If anything you need a recalibration of the ECM.
Blows cold when first started and then blowes warm
I would replace the AC compressor cycling switch it may be sticking have seen it a number of times. The switch is located in the receiver dryer on the passenger side of the engine compartment. See picture below.
If this isn't the problem the AC compressor relay may also cause this, flip a coin.

01 Taurus a/c is working, but not blowing out the dash vents, only out the defrost vents. What do I look for, and how to fixing this problem. HELP!
The system to change from vent to defrost etc. it's all vacuum controlled. First thing I would do is look inside your engine compartment and look at all the black hoses close to the firewall. Check to see that they have no cracks, have come apart, this is also a good time to check your oil, and do a visual for anything that doesn't look tight or right. In Ford your temp is cable controlled but vents are all vacuum. Words case scenario you may have to take off that control panel to investigate further. One last thing if you can look under the dash tho make sure morning had been kicked loose. A good trick to use for an inspection like that is a mirror and flashlight. Let me know. Jim

2000. How can I start it when the theft light is on?
You can't - when the PATS (passive anti-theft system) is armed the engine management system (and maybe other stuff) is switched off.
The system is embedded into and integral with the vehicle electronics and it is practically impossible to defeat it or bypass it. Only sending the correct code will switch on the electronics and allow the engine to start - the code is stored in the vehicle memory and in a transponder embedded either in the ignition key or plip.
