Now I can get down to configuring the van for my use. I've removed all seats except for driver seat, put a very dark tint on all windows except driver, passenger and wind shield. Made and installed block out curtains for all windows, installed four 5v 3A USB chargers in the doghouse. Now to add a ge...

If it runs fine and is getting average fuel economy, drive it! Well problem was when ever it threw a code the torque converter would unlock, my rpm's when up by about 300 and my HiWay MPG would not get better than 15mpg. Now I'm getting 20 mpg HiWay. What do you do for disaster areas? I inspect hom...

It's fixed. Got it back from dealer still trowing P0300 at about 2k rpm. Decided to remove 1/16" spacer I'd installed on the crank position sensor back with the old engine because the sensor showed some light rubbing on the end, at the time thought that might have been the reason I was getting ...

Update: Day 3 at dealership still no fix. They reset computer, did relearn but still throws P0300. They let it sit for 2 days and finally put it in the shop yesterday. Going to check with them this morning. Unfortunatly Im going to need the van for the reason it was purchased sooner than expected. M...

Ran out of time so dealer has it now. They did a relearn but say its still thowing a P0300 random misfire so there looking into it....$$$ still adding up.

Thanks Lifted, the van has had 3 caps and rotors since I bought the van 3 weeks ago, only one new but still chucking a misfire code. BUT I think I'll try them again as this was before I smoked the original mtr and tben I was getting a P0306 under the same conditions, now with the new mtr Im getting ...

Chasing a P0300 code that comes up every time the engine makes 1600+ rpm. My scanner (andriod Torque app) is showing a timing advance of 15.5° at idle, that goes up to 46° when accelerating. Is CMP the same as Timing advance?

The insurance company will be lucky to get $400 at auction so dont let them get more from you. You'll probably have to surender your title and deal t with a salvage title, check your state to see whats involved re regerstering it and retitling it to a rebuilt. Also check your insurance company, Ive ...

Ok bought a 2002 astro AWD in Kentucky when I was up there in Jan. Van has 142k. Seems to have been maintained ok but for the SES and ABS lights. Scanned the codes and was showing a P0306 (misfire #6) and a P0300 a few rare times. Seems the van would throw one of these codes right at 2000 rpm no exc...
