Why doesn't the air conditioner blow cold air when the engine is idling?

You A/C system probably needs to be recharged. If it is a newer vehicle (made after 1996) you can buy an R134a refrigerant recharge kit at most automotive parts retailers, and refill the system yourself. If the vehicle is older, or you are not mechanically inclined, take the car to a reputable garage and have them do a full diagnostic on the A/C system; they will test the lines for leaks and make sure the compressor is working properly.
You also need to check the fan for the radiator/condensor for proper operation.

Why does your ford windstar 2003 blow hot air when idling and cold air when driving?
Could be a number of reasons for this condition. I would check the coolant level. A low coolant level could cause your heater to blow cold air when the engine is warm. Is the engine warm? If the engine is fluctuating temp it could be a faulty thermostat. Hope this helps.
Why does aircooled engine blow white smoke?
White smoke will come out of a vehicle's exhaust system when the engine is cold. This is because of condensation build up in the engine and exhaust. The white smoke should go away after several minutes of idling. If you engine is always blowing white smoke, regardless of temperature, then it might be burning oil. Check the levels of your engine oil and your transmission fluid (if you have an automatic) and have the engine compression checked for blow-by.
