Engine complaints
I have a ford e350 4x4 van 2003. There has been fumes accumulating in the van when driving. I get headaches and my eyes tear and my feel sick. I noticed the fumes intensely on 1.25.08 When driving highway miles in cold weather at a distance of 2.5 Hours and 132 miles one way and 264 round trip. The fumes build up when driving. I open my passenger window while still driving and it seems like I get more fumes. In addition when I put on the heater it also fill up the van. On 2.1.08 I did another trip like the one that was mention above. My wife an I experience the same affect which were headaches and nauseous. *Tr
