Re: 2000 squeek/squall and stall...

Check for a vaccum leak.....a issue with one of the vaccum lines.
I had a similar situation, although it did not stall....I an easily see where it could if bad enough......caused by a crack in the elbow at the top of the upper intake manifold......next to the throttle body......
This is the line that goes to the PCV valve (in the front valve cover on 1999 and newer windstars).
I replaced the cracked elbow and solved my problem.
The crack was on the inside of the elbow....

Don't ask me why it made the sound.......as it sounded to me like the sound came from the opposite side.......by the IMRC actuators, drive belt, etc.....where you have been working.
