I was told fluid drains out of the torque converter(overnight) due to a bad inner seal when cold,once the car warms up and fluid is pumed back in the converter it operates fine.I'm going to try a additive to swell the seals,my olds acheiva(96)has over 200,000 and I'm going to try this before I drop the big bucks down.This car runs great all day but takes ten minutes to warm up in the morning,before it shifts fine

When you put a 2001 Ford Windstar in reverse why does it die out?

I have a '95 Windstar and have experienced the same problem when I first start it in the morning and especially when the weather is cold. When the engine is first started, and until it warms up, it runs in a start mode until engine heat reaches a certain level. The engine sensors then control fuel/air mix to deliver the best levels of performance, as designed. It is best to let your engine warm up for 5-10 minutes on cold days. If you are in Florida, 5 minutes will do; Minnesota, 10 minutes for every 10 degrees below zero!!!
