Thinking seriously about putting together a short body AWD with the 3L but the '97 5 speed automatic to tow a TT. In the process of selling our 27' Four Winds MH, Ford E350 Super-Duty chasis and moving "down" to a lightweight. 16-18' Travel trailer. I was sort of considering a manual transmission since some of the early Aerostars came that way. Was there ever an Aerostar AWD with the manual tranny? |

| I have a 93 ford aerostar electronic all-wheel drive 4.0L One of the fuel lines popped of the engine and I am not sure where it goes. the line comes down in the back of the motor and connects to a rubber elbow and hose the hose popped of and I can not find where it connects for the life of me. Please if anyone knows what I am talking about get back to me I'm kinda in a hurry. I have to take children home on saturday, so it is very important to fix my van. | |
We have an excellent experience with our 1996 Ford Aerostar XLT 2WD with the 4.0L engine. Reliability is incredible (now 140,000), and it hasn't been into the repair shop for any engine work since 1999. It's still on the original engine and transmission. It's even more reliable than our 1995 Honda Accord LX (not a joke) that we already sold last month. Anybody has this same experience we are having? A trouble-free Aerostar for 8 years (excluding oil changes and tires).

Hello. I have a 1989 Aerostar Eddie Bauer with about 135K on it. The original engine and transmission are still working great. This van actually runs a lot better then my other 1990 Toyota corolla DX wagon!  However, I was wondering. One day while driving it, the transmission started to slip from a stop. The engine would race for a second, but then there was this sudden jerk. It was like if someone had kicked it forward. It had also slipped from 2nd to 3ed gear for a while. But now, it semens to run normal now. I checked the AT fluid, and it was full. My basic point here is, since this van has passed 120K miles, should I be worried about the transmission? How would I know when it would be signs for a overhaul? Can it fail at any time?  Thanks!

| I am having a problem with the fuel system in the van. Apparently Ford designed the van so that the excess fuel dumps into the oil pan. When the van is driven for about a half hour the oil thins due to fuel/oil mixture and the oil pressure drops to zero when you come to a stop. Only by reving the engine will the pressure rise. If any one has experienced a similar problem with their Van I would appreciate knowing what the solution is. | |
| I need to know could I put a size smaller on a 1995 aerostar. Would it hurt anything? Tires, a size smaller than what came on them. | |
