i have a 96 windstar, 3800cc, maybe about the same, take a long prybar to the slot on top of back component, maybe Power Steering pump on yours, it will be on a tension spring, push down. this should give enough slack to get the belt on or off, if not loosen the altenater bolts just enough to give another quarter inch.
I wish I knew. It was replaced by the Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey Minivan, but as far as I'm concerned, the Windstar was a better minivan comparing it's 2 replacements.
