New to DF, not new to Dodge
Hi Everyone,
I'm new to DF, but I'm not a new Dodge owner. I'm a big minivan fan, and I'm building a turbo '88 minivan with FMIC and 3 inch exhaust. My first minivan was an '84 that I bought used. I use my minivans to haul everything. My current hauler is a '93 that I paid $175 for. It came with the special two-tone paint. You know, silver and rust (where the paint peeled off the hood and roof and rusted). I've had it several years, and all I've done is replace one caliper and the front flex brake lines! It's now Mack truck green. The color is appropriate because I have hauled over 2,000 pounds of coal in the back of it - probably ten times! The rear springs are on steroids - the van is higher in the back unloaded, but is level when loaded.
My daughter's Stratus brings me to this forum. It's her first car (new driver), but has some issues. So far, I think I've gotten answers to all of them. I'm planning to replace the CKS, plugs, wires, etc. today.
