Ok so it was off for like two startups and now its back? This van is toying with my emotions anybody understand this?

 

Check the connectors at the PCM, make sure they are clean, and tight. (disconnect battery, disconnect connectors at PCM, clean and inspect, put everything back together.)

 

Is the pcm right under the Hood on these things?

Also I had to put in on hold because the hose going from the water pump to the intake manifold was split. So I can't really run it long enough. I have it torn down to it but I have to wait for the hose to come in. Also, that pipe coming from the side of the water pump, what kind of seal does it take? I looked on the pipe and no o-ring.

I have a feeling I finally had it reset because after the light went off, I shut it off and started it back up and it idled like crap and smelled like fuel. So I imagine ill be resetting it again. Finally making some headway.

Ill be working on it maybe Thursday night. Ill report back

And seriously guys, thank you so much. You all are helping make my freinds dreams and passions come true. (They leave for tour in like two weeks and they need this van)

 

The pipe into the water pump should have a groove, with an o-ring in at for sealing. If it isn't there..... check and see if it didn't rust out, and break off. (like mine did.....) You can buy the pipe at the parts store from the "help" section.

Not sure where they hide the PCM on a van.....

 

Autozone has it for about $10. So its all good regardless haha.

What I think is the pcm has three large plugs in a box that looks like a pcm so I hope haha

 

That'd be it.
