Hey all,
New member here. I saw some asking similar questions regarding their caravans.
I'm having a problem with mine not starting sometimes.
I've got a 2000 caravan with a 2.4L. About 3 weeks ago, I went out one morning to go to work, and it simply wouldn't start.
I called to have it towed, but they couldn't get to it until the next morning. It started right up for them. Computer showed no problems. They started it hot, cold, everything. No problems. They kept it overnight and started it first thing next morning. No problem.
So, we drove it home and it worked for about a week. Then kaput.
Tried for 2 or 3 consecutive days at various times of days, and it sounded like it wanted to go, but it just wouldn't start.
This morning, it's running fine.
Anybody seen anything like this before?
Thank you.

 

The times it does not start, when you turn the key into the run position, do you hear the fuel pump cycle? You should hear a brief buzz or whir as the pump presuurizes the system. Lets start here...

 

Yes, I do.
Audibly, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong, except that it just won't "catch" and start up. Except when it does.

 

2 areas to check now is whether you have fuel coming to the injectors and injectors are working? And then if you have spark? If it turns out fuel delivery has been working and no spark, it might be a good idea to change the oil,because it sometimes can get a little thinned by the excess gas.
