My mom and dad have a 96 Winstar (wish they would just blow it up) that seems to have some problems.
1st) The rear AC won't come on. You turn it on AC and the heater (that comes out on the floor) comes on. Flip it to heat and it still stays on.
2nd) The Front AC doesn't get cold. It will every now and then for a min and then will feel just like the fan. I know it doesn't need a charge I just put two cans of R13a in.
3rd) Sometimes while driving the ABS light will come on. If you turn it off it goes away.
4th) There is this freaking annoying sound coming from the engine. It sound's like a freakind diesel. I went and had the il changed, 20/50 oil put in and two bottels of oil detergent (suppose to quiten noisy lifters and valves which is what I figured it was)
5th) Are there any other V6 ford engines that are direct drop in?
