Re: 1998 Windstar Oil/Water in Throttle Body and Air Duct Hose

I would change the oil FREQUENTLY as the coolant and even water will not do good things for lubrication.

I have read that the Motorcraft PCV valve is highly recommended over aftermarket valves.

If the Motorcraft PCV valve does not stay seated, you can buy a PCV valve grommet....as they sometimes wear out.

This is sounding more and more like a lower intake manifold gasket issue......when you mention the steam in the exaust.
I would have them replaced.
