Section 7 (Engine Controls - Remove/Install/Overhaul - 3.8L): Introduction

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Ford Windstar. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Removal, overhaul, and installation procedures are covered in this article. If component removal and installation is primarily an unbolt and bolt-on procedure, only a torque specification may be furnished.

CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See the COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the GENERAL INFORMATION section before disconnecting battery.
