What causes engine to rev up and down on a 1995 ford windstar when car is in drive or reverse but not in park or neutral?
sounds like a vacuum leak,, check vacuum lines from both valve covers for leaks or dry rot I just had this problem. My fix was simple. Remove the MAF sensor, get some electrical contact cleaner and clean the two wires/sensors. DO NOT TOUCH the wires or they may break. You may also have to purchase a anti-tamper star/hex set from advance auto parts (aprox $10) to remove the MAF sensor. This really works like a champ. Also, replacing the Idle Control Valve would not hurt as junk builds up in it.

Rev the engine slightly to see if it will keep running. If it does, then check for a possible vacuum leak. There could be a leak that gets worse when the transmission is shifted into gear.
