#255 of 520 Aerostar trans by brendon Apr 10, 2005 (6:13 pm)
Hi first time poster. I have a 4.0 1990. When its cold it won't shift out of 1st (its an automatic) and races if you run it over 20-25 mph. Its an old vehicle but only has 50k on it and seems overall in good shape. bot it about 2 weeks before this started up. Sounds like trans but had a friend go over it and looks to be in good condition so he thinks is a sensor any advice. Dont want to just take it to a shop where they will look for every little thing and charge accordingly.   Thanks, Brendon Portland Oregon Replies to this message: littleh (May 22, 2005 8:11 pm) skater2 (Dec 11, 2005 7:28 pm)
#256 of 520 Re: 94 Aerostar won't start when it rains! [jape] by 12shield Apr 12, 2005 (4:01 pm)
Replying to: jape (Mar 01, 2005 10:12 am) I had the same problem with my 94, the problem comes from moisture getting to the the distributor cap and ignition wires. Your brother needs a tune-up, Get prepared for about 3 hours of knuckle busting work but it will be worth it. Until then spray "wire dry" on the cap and on as many wires as you can get to, it will put a protective coating on them.

Replying to: stear_n_wiel (Dec 30, 2001 5:40 pm) I have an '87 aerostar and recently installed new brakes and master cylinder. After driving about 5 miles it felt like the emergency brake was on and i started smelling burning brakes. Pulled over , called the mechanic and he came out and bled the brakes a bit and they released. Everything seemed fine for about 2 more miles, then again same thing. He says that hes never heard of this and doesnt know why they would do that. Any ideas anybody? I really need some help here. Thanks!                            Stuck in Clairemont Replies to this message: wut4 (May 27, 2005 12:29 pm)
#259 of 520 air conditioning problems by jsambo1 Apr 16, 2005 (5:28 am)
I have a 93 aerostar with 116k miles but no airconditioning and I live in north carolina. I had it converted to the new coolant but it stopped working the next year and was diagnosed with the "black death". I laughed until the mechanic said it would cost $2000 to have all of the hoses blown out and replaced to fix the problem. I had another mechanic confirm that there was such a thing as"black death" that afflicted aerostar airconditioning systems. Has anyone ever dealt with such a plague and can you tell me how to get around this problem without paying such a ransom. I drove last year without air but the lack of rear windows makes opening the windows less than a useful alternative. thank you Replies to this message: gblackman (Jun 08, 2005 7:43 am)
#260 of 520 Water leaks into rear of '95 Aerostar XL by leftys7 Apr 16, 2005 (6:44 am)
After 9/11 I went to the airport and they were searching the trunks of all vehicles. They opened the tailgate of my Aerostar XL and opened the two floor storage compartments and told me"Did you know that these are filled with water?" I didn't. The floor rug from mid third seat to the rear tailgate was soaked. Luckily I live in a dry climate, northern Nevada, but after a rain I find it still gets soaked. I drilled two holes in the floor of the jack well and leave the plug out on the other side. I've checked it myself and had my mechanics check it by sitting inside and having it sprayed with a hose but we cannot find a source for the leak. Any ideas? I don't want to take off all the interior panels and will probably just live with it if I can't figure out the source.

#262 of 520 Broken Parking Light/ Turn Signal by marinewife0930 Apr 24, 2005 (6:51 pm)

Replying to: rummer (Mar 13, 2005 5:19 pm) I also have a 97 Aerostar it only has 180,000. Some one rearended it last week an the insurance company says it is totaled. they say it is only worth 3000.00 but I can't find one for that amount. This is my 3rd Aerostar and I think they are great dependable vans. We had planned to use this one for at least 2 more years.
