Question 1996 Caravan Nightmare

You are going to love this one! I have a 96 Dodge Caravan 3.0 L 181000 Km's it has had the standard problems (shreading surpintine belt, trans. ect) It has always gone to a Dodge dealer (three different ones depends where it breaks down)
This time it ran great one day and the next it would not start I checked for spark, fuel ect...all well, off to the dealer. They checked fuel, map sensor,blah blah and called me to let me know that the ECU needed to be replaced. Well I said OK, big mistake they could not get the thing going it was popping and would not run right. Finally a week later I got the van back paid $980 CND. and drove home it ran OK. Next morning it could barley idle back to the dealer and they did something?? and I drove home it had a slight miss at idle the dealer said we cant do anything till check engine light comes on.
The van ran great at cold temp. but at op. temp it would run rich and have a little miss. Finally last week the van would not start again back to dealer...code multi-mis fire. They got it going it was flooded and they dried the plugs a squirt of oil in the cyl. and called me to pick it up. I drove home (it ran great never got up to op. temp.) parked and the next morning it would not start again (same thing plugs are wet with gas) please any help would be great because the dealer is saying we dont want to see this van any more but thanx for the $1000.00 Help!!
