Ford Aerostar Originally conceived as an answer to the first Chrysler minivans, the Aerostar is an old school rear-drive van that's at its best when it's harnessed for hard work. It can haul--and tow--heavier loads than the front-drive crowd, and gets the job done with a fair degree of comfort and style.

When was the last time it was replaced? It should be done on a yearly bases. When my 90 Areo's filter pulged once, it acted as if the trans was going in and out of OD And loosing power on hills, it would down shift alot.

A lot of hesitation on acceleration is another good indicator. Ultimately a filter for these vans is like $9 and takes less than 10 minutes to change. Just swap it out on general principals.
