Re: 92 grand caravan spits, sputters, bang, BANG! help!

There are many possibilities. I would start with a compression check and connect a fuel pressure gauge and see what pressure the pump is supplying. Also flush and drain the cooling system and change the thermostat and rad cap while you're at it. They are cheap.

Are you seeing white vapor out the t-pipe and/or oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil? The oil will appear a lighter brown with streaks. These are indications of a blown head gasket. Are the cooling fans coming on?
