What owners wrote
The motor mount split and dropped the motor on the axle and broke the axle while driving.tt also there was afaulty oil guage sending unit that was replace, as well as rear brakes were not functioning due to frozen cylinders.
I own a 1990 dodge grand caravan with the motor. One morning on my way to work the accelerator stuck open. I pulled over to investigate and removed the air cleaner cover and map sensor to see what why the throttle was stuck open. I found a square piece of plastic that looks like a little table with a hole in the top. I wanted to find out how it got there so I took the air cleaner out and found that it is supposed to hold the crankcase ventilation filter in the bottom of the canister.
