My 97 town and country will lose power and start to sputter after about 20 minutes of driving. the engine light will come on and stay on.
I let it cool and the problem goes away until the next time i drive it for 20 minutes or so. can anyone help?

Does it overheat and then you let it cool down? If it overheats and causes it to do this it may be your water pump? Have it looked at. If it does not overheat then maybe someone else might have a better suggestion then mine!

no it does not overheat. I checked the pcm codes today. according to the codes i am pretty sure i need to change the o2 sensor on the exhaust manifold. i am going to have to take of the intake manifold on top of the engine to get to it though. I now understamd why mechanics charge so much money. Thanks for your help. Hope someone can use this info.
