I would bet 1 dozen doughnuts your Windstar has a 3.8 liter engine.
Next time you're checking your oil and filling up the washer solvent, look at the top of the engine - likely you'll see a large 3.8 embossed into the black oblong cover that has the oil fill cap on it.
on the crank behind the front cover
Connect a diagnostic code reader to find out what's going on. That's the only way you'll know for certain. It could be something as simple as a bad air filter or oxygen sensor but the computer diagnostics will tell you what code has been stored.

Yes , on a 1998 Ford Windstar the fuel pump shut off switch ( inertia switch ) is in the drivers footwell behind the kick panel by the drivers left foot , by the inside hood release ( there is an access hole in the panel )
If you mean 3.8 Litre engine, the answer is 200 horsepower, from the factory. 225 lb/ft of torque.
haynes repair manuals are good but you can go to autozone.com and they have online repair manuels as well it a good site for a lot of information on repair work.
Well, the transmissions are interchangable, so your good there. But if you put a 3.3l in youll have to change the ECM because they have different settings for the 3.8 and 3.3. So if you change the ECM I think youll be ok. My email is RPplayer73@aol.com
it's located on the firewall right in back of the intake
The mass air flow sensor is located in the throttle body housing on the 3800 engine. There should be 4 screws that hold it down to the housing. Once they screws are removed, the sensor lifts off of the throttle body.
A haynes manual...
3.8 litres is fractionally more than 1 US gallon.
They always blow the head gaskets between 70 and 100 thousand miles.
