Re: 2001 Windstar Rough Idle / Misfire
Well today we found that part of the problem was a vacuum leak on the back of the motor. One of the lines came loose. At first we thought the problem was solved when the van drove great. At least for a little bit. Then it decided to start stalling out randomly. The check engine light came back on and I had a misfire on cyl 1 again, and and EGR code. I checked the TSB at the top of the forums as suggested, so this prompted me to remove the intake. Sure enough, the bolts and gaskets in there are the stock ones. I checked the local auto parts stores and they all carry a kit (Valve cover, gaskets, bolts, pcv, fuel pressure sensor, etc...) for $98 to fix the TSB. Unfortunately the closest store with one in stock was an hour away. So for the time being I have it torn down and I ordered one and will be picking it up in the morning. I'll post my results later. Thanks for the help!
