My 2000 Ford Taurus stalls at a stop and after a few miles, you could smell something like a burning plastic metal.
The check engine light is steadly on. What could possibly be the problem?

It could be a few things, but if you're smelling plastic and metal then you have a wiring fault causing a short at bare minimum.

You're car is EEC5, so you need a scanner to pull codes; Start there and you should get a pretty clear picture of what's going on.

Hope that helps!
