Thanks a lot this really helped me understand about my van.
What happened to your Trans Am?
At about 37:40 you observe that better engineering could have been done for
future maintenance, the problem is when the auto manufacturers started using
“cab forward” designing in all vehicles. I am 6’3″ for the most part I
feel crammed in a vehicle no matter which seat I sit in.
Wow… This guy was so good but he stopped making videos. Please Make more.
Did you end up getting the 120 gallon fish tank you were looking for? Your
fish were so cool!
Good video
so glad you have my van. You’re a great teacher. Great vids. Props +1
The metal pieces at 19:18 are heat shields to protect the wires from the
heat coming from the manifold.
For what it’s worth, those metal tubes on the ends of the spark plug wires
are heat shields, since the wires sit between the exhaust ports. It’s
important that if you replace the wires that the new wires either have the
shields, or that you transfer them to the new wires before installation.

What size wrench did you use to do the oil change?
Hey 905speedgta, I’ve been working on cars since I was 11yrs old I am now
49yrs old and I have to say, you did a great job of explaining how to
change the back bank of plugs on your 98 dodge van! It’s nice to see
someone from a younger generation that “gets it” I take my hat off to you!
As an extra tip for you and your viewers, when reinstalling the spark plug
wires put a bit of dielectric grease in the boot of the wires to help seal
them from moisture and to also make them easier to come off next time!
Once again great job! Have a great day!
why didnt you include how to remove the wiper tray?
thats one of the most important parts
thank you
how do you get your horn to work on your 98 Dodge Grand Caravan
Thanks for the video it help out.
You DIDNT show how to get out the number 5 spark plug in the back…On mine
there is literally no way possible to get it out…how did you get yours
out?..
hey dude thanks for the video…Mine is a 1998 3.3 L… and I am having the
worst time possible getting to the number 5 in the rear..any tips?
Did you ask me if I had my. Head gasket done on my grand caravan minivan??
It should be done every 80-100 miles…. So my minivan has had it done 3
times!! And it is about time again because I had it done at 318,000
miles..:)
constant chatter?
I also did it as a profession too. But I moved on to other stuff
Thanks for the video
really? Every 80-100k miles? Where does it say that in the owners manual?
If your head gaskets are good, why tear the engine apart to replace the
Head gaskets, your only asking for trouble if you tear your engine apart
for no reason. The most you may gain for doing head gaskets every 80-100k
miles, is a slight higher compression. I’ve seen these engines go 300-400k
miles easily without major maintenance. The 3.3/3.8 are bullet proof
engines.I myself have a 04 caravan with 112,000k miles on it.
I to have a 98 caravan. . .I get a chattering sound on the 1 cyclinder when
gas n up. . .timing chained or sefoam??
Please someone tell me what size of wrench do you put over the serpentine
belt tensioner to get it to come loose I have been struggling to even get
my wrench on the bolt at all and now I am stuck!!!
right, thats because its a 2007 and not a 1998. i had the same luck on my
2003 dodge caravan with the 3.8L. there intake plenums are designed
differently and easy to access the plugs and wires from behind.
cool. with was a half hour 45 mins for me without making a video.. making
videos on something your doing slows you down ALOT haha
