Ford 500 Limited a/c and heater malfunction?

Whenever I start my car during the day, the A/C comes on automatically and I can't shut it off for a few minutes. Likewise, at night, the heater comes on and it takes a few minutes before it allows me to shut it off.

I assume it's some climate control issue. Maybe I pushed a button on my dashboard?

Recently, when the air is on during these few minutes, the car occasionally lurches a bit. Not so that anyone watching from the outside would notice, but I feel it.

Any ideas what it could be?

Is there any way to beef up a 99 Ford Windstar?

I have a 99 Windstar SEL has the 3.8L. I know much people don't make minivans into drag cars or what not. I was just wondering if anyone has done it or has any ideas. If can't what would be a good engine to swap out. I don't want to hear it's stupid or what not. I want to do something different from the regular cars and trucks.

How do I turn a corner with a manual transmission?

When I turn corners while travelling with some speed I clutch in and put it into 2nd but i don't engage (let up on the clutch) until I have made the turn. I brake and basically coast around the corner with the clutch in with the gear selector in 2nd. Once I have made the turn I engage 2nd gear by releasing the clutch and giving gas (rev matching if necessary).

I know that turning corners without being engaged in a gear is bad (due to emergency situations).
But my primary concern is that is this method bad for the synchros? I'm travelling at a fairly high speed and clutching in and putting the gear in 2nd without engaging but does this put wear on the synchros? Do the synchros do anything when the clutch is in? Because I clutch in and put it in 2nd when I'm doing a very high speed not suitable for 2nd gear but I didn't think much of it because I wasn't actually engaging the gear. Is this bad? I have noticed some difficulties getting into 2nd and 3rd now which are the main gears I use when cornering with this method. I think I may have damaged the synchros.

Is this method of cornering bad? What should I do to change it?

Car: 2003 Ford Falcon xr6 manual transmission

Thoughts on what's wrong with the car and how much it would cost to get repaired?

The car is a 2002 Ford Jaguar. It has been shaking roughly, misfiring, and have a hard time getting the car to start. I believe this is because of the spark plugs needing to be changed. The tail pipe needs to be welded and clamps have to be put on which makes the car sound like it's rattling. I'm not exactly sure if these are the only problems though. The car is having problems and lacks a get up and go and takes a long time just to reach 40 mph. I think there might be something wrong with the fuel injector or something because it does not hold gas well at all. A fuel tank barely gets me through 22 miles. It also sounds like a derby car which I think is probably the tail pipe s lack of clamps.

What kind of engine does my 1979 ford f100 have?
