91 Grand Caravan Fuel Problem
This is my first post please forgive any errors .
I have had this Van for about 6 months and have not got to drive it very far due to this problem ! Van stalls while driving and will not start for about an hour, starts and runs for a short time and quits again ! Fuel pump filter and all lines have been replaced still have the problem ! When this happens I depress the valve on the fuel rack and get air not fuel ! I am at my whits end , can anyone help me ? I have spent a small fortune on fixing up this Van and can't quit now ! HELP

Re: 91 Grand Caravan Fuel Problem
Wow, that's a toughie. I would speculate that the fuel pump is sucking in air from somewhere. Is this engine throttle-body or MPI? If its a throttle-body type, look to the injector, especially if you get a stall when accelerating. If it is MPI, try the pump first.
Hope this helps a little.

Re: 91 Grand Caravan Fuel Problem
Hi !
When it stalls it is like you are running out of gas,it sputters and back fires then dies, I have not been able to get fault codes with the key operation. I have been driving the van for a day without stalling after putting water remover in the tank (short trips) to and from town ! If this was or is a water problem I don't know where it came from and I have used gas line antifreeze since the tank and fuel pump replacement !I will take a longer drive to-morrow (fingers crossed) and see what happens . Thanks for the post Update ! Problem not solved ! I have been driving the van about 2 week since I put water remover in the tank , thought it was fixed (wrong ) It is back to the same problem . ???
