My 2001 grand caravan won't stay running. it will start, and occassionally sounds like a backfire and wont stay running, even with a wide open throttle. i can rev it and sometimes get it to stay on, but then if i feather the throttle at all it stalls.
When a car starts and suddenly it stops running is because the timing is out of regulation. It could happens too when the platina inside distributor is damaged or separation is too long between them. To solve this problem you have to uncap the distributor getting off the platinas and if they are bad to change them. If it is timing, you get the first embolo candle and reorganize timing; this process is not difficulted if you know the timing of the car. You have to see also the possition of the hammer inside the distributor in order to set the right timing.

Glad too hear your making progress, sounds like your dealing with a reasonable shop too. For future reference, take notes when your vehicle acts up. The more information you cn give your technician the easier it is to be fixed. Good luck, let me know how you make out.

SOURCE: Battery replaced on 2001 grand dodge caravan now radio dont work
U will need to enter the radio anti theft code, this lock out was triggered by the loss of voltage to the radio during the battery change, this code is unique to each radio and cam in the owners information packet when the cat was sold new.

sound like vacuum leak or fuel pump problems.scan it to see if egr valve sticking open.
SOURCE: Backfires in manifold on motor on acceleration. runs ok low speeds
Nornally reson for backfire is when intake Valve open Internal combustion in Cylinder. Pls Check Your Ignition Timing & Valve Timing. ( I think Your Timing Advancer is Defect )

Check the charging system13.65 volts,to 14.25 volts at the battery when running and lights and blower fan on high.Check the battery connections,that they are clean.The fuel pressure maybe low,check the fuel filter,and the fuel pressure to see if the fuel pump is weak.
