Replying to: johnc21 (Aug 28, 2007 2:17 pm) I didn't get that far. I think I overfilled the transmission fluid which caused the 2nd and 3rd gears to fail. I'm not going to bother getting the transmission fixed on such an old car. I changed the filter and replaced the fluid to the right level, but to no avail. My next choice would have been to check the speed sensor.   You can get the trouble codes by turning your key in the ignition 3 times. so off-on-off-on off on (without turning the car over) the engine light will blink. a sequence of blinks, a pause then miore blinks. so 3 blinks followed by 2 blinks is code 32.
#58 of 173 Starting Problem ~ Any Advice? by kychikids Aug 22, 2007 (7:00 am)
Our family has a '91 Plymouth Voyager (3.0 engine with 120,000 miles) that runs perfectly but has begun to be very difficult to start.   We've had three mechanics look at it ~ We've replaced the computer, most sensors, and the fuel pump (shows 60 pounds of pressure).   The electronic tester says the problem is a code 26, which no one seems to know the meaning of.   We really love this old van and want to get the problem worked out ~ Does anyone out there have any ideas or advice?   e-mail: dona at 4littlefeetbowlinggreen.net

Replying to: johnc21 (Aug 28, 2007 2:17 pm) This may be a little late to help you, but hopefully it can help someone. My van was stalling when I'd come to a stop. Thought I'd gotten bad gas. Mechanic thought so as well since the plugs smelled rancid and they had tried replacing a number of sensors. Had recently replaced the Oxygen Sensor...check engine light had been coming on. Now however, the light was not coming on and no codes were showing up in the computer according to the mechanic so they chose to replace the fuel pump, filters and scrub the tank....$700 later and the van was still dying. They replaced the oxygen sensor and it is no longer dying, but is still running a little rough.
#60 of 173 1990 Plymouth Grand Voyager starting problem by moparman4gzuz Oct 08, 2007 (5:29 pm)
My 1990 Voyager with a 3.3 litre motor has an intermittant starting problem. Occasionally it will not start (turns over fine), if you squirt starting fluid in the intake, it starts for as long as the fluid lasts, then dies. If you leave it for a few hours, it will then start up fine. I had it towed to a shop and they could not find a thing wrong as it would not act up there (go figure). Has anyone had this problem?
#61 of 173 starting trouble by marytmanning Oct 15, 2007 (2:28 pm)
I have a 1997 dodge caravan sport.It will start but it's like someone is stealing it.It runs for a couple of sec. then shuts down. It's been in several shops and had work done and sensors put in but every couple of weeks this happens.Some times it's hours and this time it's been 5 days.help.

Replying to: marytmanning (Oct 15, 2007 2:28 pm) Have you had the fuel pump and fuel filter looked at?
#63 of 173 starting trouble by marytmanning Oct 15, 2007 (3:22 pm)
Yes, also the starting censor. New fuel and filter. It will run and start like brand new for a couple of weeks then it wont do anything but run for a couple of sec. No lights on dash show.ligts,radio,heat everything will work except the gas gage,oil light.etc. Then it shuts down. Replies to this message: jdanley (Oct 15, 2007 5:45 pm)

Replying to: marytmanning (Oct 15, 2007 3:22 pm) How about they Oxygen Sensor (check engine light would likely be on) or the Mass Airflow Sensor? Does the outside air temp or humidity make a difference? I recently had issues with my '94 Caravan and they replaced a number of things before replacing the Mass Airflow Sensor. It still isn't running smoothly, but is at least not dying everytime I brake.
