1989 Astro Rebuilt auto tranny round 170,000. 226,500 right now, just developed an occasional stall problem when comming to a stop. This has now progressed to a rough start and irratic, very rough idle, can't be driven. I  will miss this van very much

Girard,
Don't know if you got your answer yet but my '94 took R-134.
Billy,
Don't give up on her. The fix may be cheap & she may have a lot of good miles left in her. The last time mine ran like that I found the plugs worn to about .065. I cleaned & regapped them & it ran great.

93 AWD with 160,000 now hangs up when put into PARK.
Just purchased a 97 with 90,000
I put 50,000 of the 160,000 on the 93 with zero problems and it still runs great but I cannot put it into PARK.

95 Astro 218,000
Ours is at 218,000 but it has cost me 30% of it's orginal purchase price to get there and thats me doing most of the repair.
Most Annoying Problems 1st, 5 (count em) Alternators, 2nd (2 Clogged EGR), 3rd replaced 4 door lock actuators, 4th, 2 air compressors, (last one GM bought because I bought lifetime warranty on the firs replacement), New exhaust from header back, 1 Radio Antenna (that was a lot of fun), 1 Ox Sensor.
My wife says it's kind of like me, there is a need and desire to keep it around but it sure is a pain in the ass.
