  • Now that we've got the 1990 Dodge Grand Caravan LE put back together... lets see if we can make it to work, and back home again... and then tear it back apart.
    In this episode, we deal we a break down on the side of the road, a fuel filter... and start the process of repairing some concerning rust on the underbody.
    Thanks for watching!

      @462ANIMAL yeah I got lucky it died where it did. It started sputtering out in a construction zone and I took the first exit I could. Thanks for the recommendation!

    JEEZ I just looked up high mileage 3rd gens and someone(well the post is august of this year) but someone has 388,920 miles on their 2005.(i know it's a 4th gen.) This is without a engine rebuild guess your not kidding these older caravans are reliable and the 05 has the white faced cluster which is the original cluster. Just thought i would let you know about this high mileage hero van.

    You know , Amazon has sandblasters that attach to you power washer. They actually work quite well. Anything is fixable , what are your plans for the van ? Summer vehicle? Or just driving it all year ?

      @462ANIMAL it's not going to see winter or road salt as long as i have it. Sandblasting makes such a mess, I can't imagine what adding water will do especially in a gravel driveway lol. If I had a concrete pad maybe. But I prefer a grinding wheel anyway.

      @@MNMoparMinivan yes , would indeed make a mess.. or wire brush and wire wheels on a grinder.. then pour 15 paint maybe.. no need to cap off your brake line, just push your brake pedal to the floor once the lines are off and keep the pedal down with a piece of wood or a snow brush.. and disconnect your battery.

      @462ANIMAL oh I see what you're saying. Underbody is already done as of now haha. I just don't like to leak brake fluid everywhere if I can help it. I have some fittings with caps on I just hooked into the prop valve. No need to hold the pedal or anything.

    Man I hate liquid foam when they put it into vehicles like my sister has a newer vehicle I think it's like a 2006 Dodge Charger so all the wheel wells are brought it out why because the company sprayed liquid foam over all the seams on the inside probably to make it a little bit quiet but in the long run it holds moisture and your vehicle rocks out so if you could help it try not to use that stuff again on that car unless you just don't plan on using it in the snow or rain

    • @MNMoparMinivan
      @MNMoparMinivan  4 дні тому +1

      @4x4rcoff-roadtractors54 i didn't put the foam in it. Chrysler did it from the factory on a lot of these vans to minimize road noise and seal up the rockers into the wheel arches... like you said holds moisture and rots out the dog legs.
      That being said, this was done when the van was "restored" back in the early 2000s. I'm not mad because it kept the van on the road long enough that I got ahold of it. It's getting some real metal put back in this time.
