A 14 year old (at the time of video) that still has a working transmission, shear amazing. I hear nothing but bad things about windstar transmissions.
Hope you got a good deal on those retainer clips, they can be $30 bucks a piece at the dealership. This car had major problems, I bet I drove kike a dream afterward. Great dedication on your side.
Good video but my concern would be selling a tune up to the customer then going back and telling him it needs a coil pack. I alway's check spark first on missfire codes.
@vipermech A bit late but he's not selling the tune-up as a fix but as a needed service that hasn't been done in the 95k miles of ownership and since the engine is being torn into already might as well get it done. Then coil itself is the a fix for half the vehicles problems, the vacuum valves for the mirc codes, and a tune-up for normal maintenance and better operation with all the other parts/labor already done.
Thanks for posting this, after doing an oil change on my Windstar, I saw that those rods were disconnected. I happened to watch your video only days before, so I knew what they did, and how to fix them, thank you!

man this system looks way too complicated. I think FORD needs to learn the KISS principle: Keep It Simple Stupid

Those butterfly valves aren't the throttle valves. I see the EGR ports, but how does this system work???

@CoolasIce2 : Those valves open or close vacuum ports and they move with the throttle cable.
