Re: 94 Astro growling vibration by asmdsm

We have a 93 Safari with 181,000 on it, and in the past month it began to vibrate in the same manner. It is due to go in for service next week, so we'll see. There is still some vibration at a particular rpm, even in neutral, but it is much worse when in gear. Isn't as noticeable at higher speeds.

95 Astro Instrument Lights intermittent by mmariani

Sometimes when I turn on the headlight switch the instrument panel lights do not come on. All the other dashboard lights come on (A/C,heater control, radio, rear A/C switch, etc.). I suppose there is a marginal electrical connection somewhere but I'm not sure where to look. The lights will sometimes either work right away, or will come on when I hit a bump on the road or release the parking brake. Can someone suggest a physical location to check? I don't like driving at night without knowing my speed and other engine info.

Wheelchair Access by randyolsen

Does the Astro/Safari have enough headroom in the interior for a passenger in a wheel chair. I would like to find a mini van that a wheelchair passenger could ride in without having to lower the floor. Along the same line, how difficult is it to remove the 2nd row captains seats and the third row seat?

Having the same problems as described by 67firebirdconv Post #496 - can you tell me exactly where the vacuum line routes to?
I have located the broken section laying on top of the intake manifold, however have no clue as to the connecting points.
 
Thanks in advance.

The noise is probably one of the heating and air vacuum motors with a small leak.

I just bought a 2003 Safari and am hoping for a long smooth relationship with the van.
