    Spider Question

    So, my 1996 2500 5.7 with 198000 miles has developed a miss. While nothing has been 100% we believe it's the spider injectors. Strong smell of gasoline, 3 different scanners (2 from reputable shops ) show no electrical issues/ miss fires, No codes at all. Just out of the blue it has developed a...

Since my fan blows air like it should, hot or cool but it only comes out at the bottom no matter where I place the position switch, is it an actuator or my control panel.

    Astro, Rut Row

    I've had this van for over 25 years. I drove it for a few years, but it had an issue with the #6 cylinder. Still ran ok, just a rough idle. Basically, it had been a service truck before the previous owner bought it and did the mods. The engine was seriously gummed up from the lack of regular oil...
