Re: 2000 Windstar 3.8L Grabby Tranmission Shift from 1st to 2nd gear.
I looked at the heat shield on my 2000 LX 3.8 last night. Yes, it's very closely molded around the transmission, with little air gap. I tried to pry up a few of the edges, to make sure air can flow, but I probably need to completely remove the shield to do a better job of this.
The bolts attaching the shield keep it very close to the transmission - maybe I should try some shims under the bolts to hold the shield away from the transmission.
