The check engine light came on. I went to a local parts store and they pulled the codes for me. The codes came up po171 and po174.

I discovered later that this is a very common repair for this vehicle. It is also common on 1999 through 2002 Windstars and is believed by many auto experts to be related to a manufacturer design defect .
