Re: What can you people tell me about a 94 Lumina APV?

The 3.1 used in early (90-95) Lumina APV's is not the same as the car motor. It has a distributor, throttle body injection and is not prone to the intake leaks/crank sensor woes the car motors are infamous for. The biggest issues on these vans are the trans issues jeffcoslacker mentioned, hub bearings, dwater getting in the ECM and underbody/chassis rustout. As they have plastic body panels, the bodies always look good, it's the chassis/subframe you need to inspect for rustout.
