It was originally designed to be the optional engine in the Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable. In 1992, it became the standard engine for the Taurus, and was the only engine available in the 2006–2007 Taurus. It was also used in the Ford Probe, the Ford Tempo and Mercury Topaz from 1992–1994 (optional, but standard in the 1992 GLS, XR5, and LTS models),[1] the Ford Aerostar and Ford Windstar minivans, and the Ford Ranger and Mazda B3000 pickup trucks. It replaced the Cologne 2.9 engine (to which it is not related) as the base V6 in the Ranger. The Vulcan was a clean-sheet design using the metric system. The engine block was cast by Cleveland Casting Plant from tooling built by Sherwood Metal Products, the intake came from Ford's Essex Casting, and the engine was assembled at Ford's Lima engine plant in Lima, Ohio. The Vulcan is a straightforward pushrod design, with 2 valves per cylinder. Its bore and stroke is {{convert|89x80|mm|2|abbr=on}}. The engine was designed to use electronic fuel injection from the start (there was never a carburetor-equipped version), and was also sold in a "flexible fuel" configuration that could burn normal gasoline, E85 (a blend of 15% gasoline and 85% ethanol) or any mixture of these two fuels. In 1991, the Vulcan was updated with reduced friction pistons, a strengthened block, roller camshaft and other changes that resulted in a power rating of {{convert|140|hp|0|abbr=on}} and a torque rating of {{convert|160|lbft|0|abbr=on}}. In 1995, further improvements were made; all Vulcans were now equipped with a Distributorless Ignition System (DIS) utilizing a coil pack in its place, with a new intake manifold, changes in engine management and cam timing; output was further increased to {{convert|145|hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|170|lbft|0|abbr=on}}. In 2000, power output increased again, up {{Convert|10|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{Convert|16|lbft|Nm|0|abbr=on}}. A plastic upper intake was added in 2001. The last production vehicle available with the Vulcan was the 2008 Ford Ranger. Applications:
