1995 Ford Windstar GL review from Mexico
"A high cost and high risk investment"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gasket blew at 104000 miles.
General comments?
The head gasket blew without any reason.
I didn't overheat the engine.
The van had a cold thermostat and the mileage was poor.
When I changed for a hotter one, the mileage improved but the gasket blew.
