The parking brake cable broke at 15000 miles, and then again around 30000 miles. It cost over $125 to repair it each time, I don't use it anymore.
The rear Air Conditioner bit the dust in 1996. Over $600 to repair it. The rear Air conditioner died again in 1998, over $600 again. Died again in 2005 and I haven't repaired it yet.
The power steering pump went at 33,000 miles.
Ignition system module fried around 35,000 miles. I believe this was the same part that Ford was involved in litigation over, but I'm not sure. The vehicle would just shut down as we were driving down the highway.
The 302 in a Conversion Van sounds really powerful, but it's a real dog. I should have gone for the 351.
I was also very surprised with the high level of wind noise in the front seats, with all the windows closed. A Club wagon that I had previously owned was much quieter.
Great vehicle for Road Trips. Extremely comfortable for a family of five for extended trips. Very stylish, looks great. I've maintained the undercoating and Bright work and paint finish, and the van looks great. Still a head turner after all these years.
I'm assuming by stylish and it turns heads as it is painted in the bright yellow color, I hope I'm right
lol.
