I am thinking of purchasing a 2001 windstar with 105,000 miles, for around 3500. Is this price somewhat in the ballpark of what you paid for yours?

Replying to: mbogden (Jul 05, 2008 6:14 pm) Check the ICV. It is just right of the intake and left of the air filter housing. Common problem on these cars. You can replace or just clean. When my 2000 WS has idle problems I tap the metal cylinder and unplug then re- plug the electric connector and the problem goes away. Good Luck

My 98 ford windstar has been idling real slow. Its almost like you cant even hear it running. Recently started having problems and its been just dying while driving. The car just dies and steering gets real hard to steer.Doesnt do it all the time but its getting worse by the day. I had the fuel pump and filter changed, Any suggestions before i drive it off a cliff Please anything will help. Im stuck!
