hello all.. just brought home my new (to me) caravan yesterday.. its the the 3.0 in it.. drove it all afternoon after i bought it.. ran fine.. no problems.. other than the torque converter code it spits out on the c/e light.. but i got about a block away from home with it.. and took off from the stop sign and it 'gave out' almost like i shut it off and turned it back on quick.. thought maybe a fluke.. but no.. while i was pulling in my driveway .. it died.. hasnt ran since.. i put a new fuel pump and filter in it.. because i was barely getting any fuel at the rail.. now i get lots of it.. steady flow.. good pressure.. but it STILL wont start.. i checked spark.. all plugs get spark.. i was thinking fuel pressure regulator.. but i am being told it is in the tank.. on the pump.. in which i just replaced.. and it appears it came with a new one already.. they were identical.. i am getting +12v at the pump when the key is cranked.. not sure what to do now.. or where to go.. when i go to start it.. it fires.. tries to go it acts like.. then no dice.. any ideas would help me out a great deal.. thanks!

 

Mi brother have a Mitsu... Montero and had something similar, he starts the engine, it was runing foe 3 seconds and die...

The reason was the computer..... check that....

Good luck!

 

ok all its FIXED.. turned out there was ALOT of water, sand, dirt, and grass in the fuel tank.. tore it down.. tore the engine down so i could get it out of the fuel rails and lines.. it runs like a dream now.. thanks for the input.
