If your check engine light is blinking with the engine running that means an

engine cylinder misfire has been detected . You will need to have your

Ford Windstar scanned for any trouble codes to help diagnose and then repair

the problem . You can drive it in to have it repaired , just drive in a moderate

fashion ( avoid any rapid acceleration or deceleration because you can damage

the catalytic converter )
