Hey no problem Dude! Thanks for all your assistance. While I have you on the line, I am just finishing up some odds and ends on the van getting it ready for winter and there is still one outstanding issue. My heater is not working very efficiently. When it is turned up full blast there is very little air coming out. Any ideas?? The rear heating system has alot of air it's just the fromt system. Takes forever to defrost the windshield.
thanks again!!

Have you checked the cabin air filter? They can clog up pretty quickly depending on where you live. Maybe that's why you're not getting much airflow?

It's in the glove compartment. Pull the filter(s) out and run the fan to see if it runs full blast. -Tony

You're very welcome...Thanks Tony for picking up the ball when I wasn't back for a little while.
All the best,
John 
PS - I don't know about Tony but I like to eat a LOT so it might be cheaper to consult with a mechanic next time than offer to buy lunch...

I have a 2005 Chevy Venture and am very concerned about a recent problem with my Temperature Gauge - normally it's fine, but recently we had a bug dump of snow (not that it's related but I was thinking maybe salt from the road got into something) - when I idled somewhere it climbed into the red really quickly, and then stayed there. With no apparent problems with the coolant or oil. Was at my sister's for a while during Christmas eve, and came back to find the gauge buried hot - so I thought that it would indicated an electrical problem. Ambient temp is warmer and snow is melting, now I'm getting an indication again, was somewhat normal until I idled somewhere again. Opened the rad cap and had fluid - was not too hot. Any ideas?

Sounds like the coolant temp sensor is shot if its reading smokin' hot and the motor is only warm...I would change that 1st and see if it cures the problem...

front wipers park position

Wipers do not go to park when turned off. May stop partially up or even in vertical position. Take off the big cover on passenger side that covers the wiper motor ...then remove the plastic cover that shields the top of the motor. Spray WD-40 or any good lubricant over the metal plates and spring which are on top of the wiper motor drive shaft. Wiggle the blade arms some to distribute lubricant around. Wipers will now return to the proper park positon when turned off. This fixed the problem on my 2000 Venture. Old original grease dried up.
