00 XLT ENGINE SWAP
If it is an automatic transmission you may have broken the transmission, if torque converter was not correctly installed ON THE TRANSMISSION first, and you tightened up the bolts then you broke the front pump and trans is toast.
If manual then put trans in Neutral
Video on how you MUST install torque converter: www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7klzEV0kng
You can NOT install torque converter on engine, and then slide it into transmission
Big and EXPENSIVE, NO NO
There is no difference between 3.0l Flex and 3.0l Gas only engines, only fuel injectors and computer are different so the engines are interchangeable, so not an issue in your problem
