I am going to pickup a new(to me) 99 Windstar minivan and sell my 96 Windstar. So I need to get this problem fixed before it goes. When driving sometimes the check engine light starts blinking and the engine starts misfiring. I bought a check engine light tester a few weeks ago and ran the codes and got 1 4 5 after driving it like this for several months. I have been watching it closely and I have only gotten cylinder 1 misfire to come back to date. Sometimes it seems like the check engine light is actually blinking before it starts running rough. I have checked for and repaired vacuum leaks and replaced the PCV valve. Spark plugs, plug wires were also changed to eliminate them as a cause. I also put the pressure tester on the coolant system and it did not leak. Also I think my VSS is bad as my cruise control doesn't work. Would that have any effect on the way it is running? My exhaust doesn't smell like antifreeze either nor is there any milkshake in the oil.
