Replying to: newaerostarman (Jul 16, 2006 7:52 pm) Hi, I have had a 93 Aerostar XL Sport for about three years and have had great results with the engine, but had to rebuild the transmission twice and replace it after that. There is an oil leak so be sure to check your fluid levels weekly. Also replaced the fan clutch, radiator, power steering pump and seals (check the seals first if you begin to lose power steering fluid; maybe your pump will last a long time). I met an engineer whose wife goes to church with me. He was on the development team at Ford for the Aerostar and was pleased to tell me that the engine should last 500,000 miles! Mine has 258,000 on it and I use it in Florida to deliver fruit and vegetables to needy people in the Orlando area. I too hope it will give me three or four more years of good service. Hope this helps. Replies to this message: xfactorlight (Oct 08, 2008 5:38 pm) jamc128 (Jul 09, 2009 4:13 pm)

Replying to: jgade (Aug 16, 2007 9:56 am) Sir, my name is Michael. This page was brought to my attention the fact that your friend's spouse was on the development team for the aerostar. I am currently looking for my father. If you wouldn't mind helping me that would be greatly appreciated. His name is Peter T. Curtis, He's originally from the U.K but moved to Canada. He obtained his Engineering degree and started working for a company by the name of Excel something. He helped design and map out the ford aerostar's aerodynamics. He was on the design team. I would like to know if you could question your friend's husband if he knew a man by the name of Peter Curtis. Thank you very much, this would be greatly appreciated. My email is warmice500aol.com if you could email me that with any information at all that would be appreciated.

My '89 with 230k miles is still running ok. The problem I have occurred a few days ago. I can shift into gear but it won't go out of 1st gear. Any suggestions before I go to a mechanic? Replies to this message: jamc128 (Jun 28, 2009 3:08 pm) rharris6305 (Jun 28, 2009 4:46 pm)

Replying to: rharris6305 (Jun 27, 2009 5:03 pm) Did you check the tranny fluids? Replies to this message: rharris6305 (Jun 28, 2009 4:46 pm)

Replying to: jamc128 (Jun 28, 2009 3:08 pm) Yes. Someone also advised that it may be a vacuum modulator. I'll let you know what the mechanic says
