There is a special tool for that. It should be available at most auto parts stores.

SOURCE: i have a 2000 ford windstar no heat still

the problem (which is all to common on Windstar and Explorer) is the air temperture control blend door actuator motor is defective, this motor is what moves a door that gives hot, cold or a blend of hot and cold air blend to give u the desired outlet air temp.

My 2002 ford windstar has a leak comming from the pipe thats connected to the water pump and now my belt has broken and the waterpump I believe is frozen. can a waterpump freeze from having water put into...

i think your water pump is done for. replace pump and the belt and you should be good to go. that lower pipe always rotts out on these vans. might want to replace the coolant bypass hose on top while your at it. it tends to brake around the same time as the lower pipe
