I used a 3.50 IROC Daytona trans in my 94 3.0 van, very happy with it. Get 30+ mpg at highway speeds.
We just got one in at the dealer I work at. It's a 2000 Sport, extended cab with the 2.5 AMC 4-cyl and 5-speed. 2WD. 115K one owner.
I drove it, drives nice like most modern Dakotas and had...
A while back I picked up this PT Crusier shifter from a 02 PT at the yard. I always like the short-throw feel and they look cool. I want to install it in my 94 A543 minivan, I know it's been done...
I swapped a good known speed sensor in today after work. Same problem. Runs good for about 15 minutes, then acts up. So I dug out the original PCM and installed it. I noticed it idled a lot smoother,...
So I got it all back together today. Fired it up and she ran pretty good. I ran some Lucas oil stabilizer in it and it really helped to slow the smoking. I took it around the block a few times, did...
Okie dokie....been very busy but I did manage to repair the harness so it can be used again. I just need to sum up enough energy to put the damn thing back together and see if it improves any. I...
I had some time and energy after work to start digging in to it. I pulled the plugs and they look pretty good, a little dry. I took the upper plenum off and noticed this on the injector harness...
I've been trying to chase some driviability issues with my 1994 Caravan, but I've been more concered with the amount of smoke that's been pouring out of the tail pipe. Not the usual standard blue 3.0...
speedo works just fine. The van will just cut off sitting at a light idiling.
I've been soo busy I haven't had time to look at it.
I was up early this morning, went to Pull-a-Part and got a lower intake manifold from a 95 Voyager. The plenum was already off so that made it easier for me! Bolts were not stripped or broken and I...
Still torn apart, no time to get to Pull-a-Part, but heres the old thermostat, I thought it was stuck open........

Some 1990's Lexus's had hydraulic cooling fans, those are always a mess. PITA to bleed air out of and they always clog up.
I've seen it on both the 4.7 and 3.7 V6. Mostly due to overheating causing the head to warp enough to drop the seat. I replaced a 3.7 in a Liberty because it got soo hot it dropped 3 seats and...
I've never had issues with upper plenum bolts stripping, just the darn thermostat housing bolts shearing off on the first turn.
The 2.5 intake looked...interesting...in the van, but like I said it wouldn't clear the alternator bracket. I didn't expect any kind of improvement, after all the 2.5 V6 isn't that great, I just had...
Now that I got my 99 Grand Voyager back on the road, I've decided to tear in to the 94' 3 liter I've got. I went to replace the thermostat, as usual both bolts broke flush off on the intake. So off...
Mercury Mistakes and Ford Cuntwhores are terrible....thank god almost all of them are off the road......
Ford used a special "recycled" wire insulation made from corn starch and it dissolves...
I have a digital AA body cluster from a 1990 Lebaron Landau I was going to put in my 91 Acclaim LE. They're not too common, good score.
I found mine on a Caravan ES. The higher end vans have them, I noticed a few on other better equipped vans at the yard
Yes, the 3 speed 3.0 and 2.4 vans had them
If it's 15", it's 5x114.
Yep, sure made life easy! My Neon was the same way. I love bolt ons....makes up for all the hell that "direct fit" trailer hitch was....ugh
Yes, thrid gen base model vans got the 14" steelies with the 5X100 pattern. All A604 vans got the larger bolt pattern as far as I know....
I noticed a difference with the sway bar. It seems to handle much better around corners as where it would normally feel like it's going to roll over it now feels much more stable and less touchy. On...
Finally installed the rear sway bar. Bolted right on to the frame but used the suggested exhaust clamps to secure it to the axle. Works perfect...
The new gasket worked perfect, throttle body is on and working just fine. Didn't notice a huge improvement but it does have more grunt under heavy throttle. I guess I need that additional 0.5 liters...
