A common problem on Windstars, there are two IMRC valves, the only way to fix them is replacement, which is not that hard. They are mounted on the end of the intake manifold and control runner length.

The problem will not affect driveability that much, but if you have emissions testing at your location, this will likely cause it to fail.
