I repaired it instead of replacement because it didn't want to change another unneeded part and not know if there was something wrong with it. The test and repair cost 150.00 I was told the dealer could change it at around 600.00 with labor. If my car had alot of miles I would have sold the car by at 6 years old I only had 50000 miles , I thought it was worth a try and repair it. Good luck to all.

It works for me too!! Man you are a savior! I'll be going on a long trip (Sacramento to Palm Springs, CA) and will be taking the Van. Although I can put up with the dash-banging, get it started while parked, I am concerned does this problem extent to shutting off while driving on the Highway (or even on city roads for that matter)? Have you or anyone on this board had the van stall while driving (vs. not being able to start while parked)? Also Petruzzi; has the problem recurred? (beyond four months?).
Thanks again,
Kenneth
