#1998 of 2457 Re: gas gauge [jpc47] by christinew Oct 22, 2005 (3:49 pm)
Replying to: jpc47 (Jun 27, 2003 4:28 am) I'm having the same problem on in my 2000 venture. My tank keeps reading full and then it bounces back and forth between empty and full.What's the part that i need? And is it easy to fix without taking it in to a shop?

#1999 of 2457 '98 Venture Abs and Brake Lights stay on by rschiemer Oct 23, 2005 (6:51 pm)
I have owned this van for 5 years with no major problems, now this. On my drive home today, the brake light and the ABS light came on and will not go out. Has anyone else had this problem? And how much is it going to set me back? Replies to this message: ts60423 (Oct 27, 2005 4:32 pm)

Replying to: ts60423 (Oct 21, 2005 2:28 pm) thanks, but the last time I looked at a Haynes book for this info I was dissapointed, but I am watching for a GM shop manual. Anyway, I already checked the codes, had it in for diagnostics and fuel system cleaning. I think the gas cap would only relieve tank pressure, nothing else, remember there is an elec. fuel pump and fuel press. regulator, and fuel rail, and I don't even know what else connected to the fuel system (I wish I had a diagram of that).   So, all that said, I think I have 1 bad injector (maybe it has a piece of crud stuck) but my thought was to take them all out and clean them (or send them off for ultrasonic cleaning). But I have never done this so I was asking for advice.   thanks,   4thstooge Replies to this message: ts60423 (Oct 27, 2005 4:26 pm)

Replying to: mumbly6 (Mar 19, 1998 5:27 am) I have done LOTS of research on this van because of the recent problems I am having. If you type in GM intake manifold gasket in any search engine, you will see MANY posts about the defective gasket in numerous GM vehicles including the Venture from 1997 - 2003. Not sure if there are problems after 2003. I have a 97 Chevy Venture. It has been overheating on me. I brought it to one mechanic who replaced the water pump, radiator hose and thermostat. That did not fix it. I brought it somewhere else where they rodded out the radiator, changed the thermostat AGAIN, ran some sort of sealer through it because I had a very very small head gasket leak. The van did fine for 3 days and then overheated again. Basically, I have brought it to two very highly recommended mechanics that can not figure it out. Do some research before buying this vehicle.

#2005 of 2457 Re: gas gauge (and) fuel pump by crackchecker Oct 26, 2005 (6:45 am)
Replying to: christinew (Oct 22, 2005 3:49 pm) I have had a problem with the gas guage since i bought the van. But, I was able to live with it.   Just recently the van stoppen running all together. I had to have the tank dropped and the complete sender/pump unit replaced as well as the fuel filter. I have been told by a Chevy parts guy that the unit (from the factory) is the most common thing replaced on these vans.   That solved all my problems. I have more power now too.
#2006 of 2457 Is it my tranny? by chevyventure Oct 26, 2005 (7:39 am)
I got my venture at 47 thousand in february and now its at 57 thousand, Ive had 2 oil changes and no problems up till now. This morning I pulled into a gas station and my reverse is gone. I put it into reverse and I get a click sound drive works but its not picking up quickly like this morning when I first got into the car. I checked the tran fluid it was fine. I dont even know where to refill the tran fluid though. Somebody please tell me its not the whole transmission?!?! I dot think I have an extended warranty so I think Im screwed.
