Engine ran but had a rod knock. Replaced with running engine from a 98 Cirrus. Engine started immediately after replacement, warmed up and checked fluids. Let it set overnight and test drove; drove 2 miles, let sit for 10 minutes, drove 2 miles, let sit for 5 minutes, drove 150 yards, engine stalled and will not restart. Scanned for codes, none present. Checked mechanical timing, cam marks indicate TDC when #1 @ TDC compression. Compression is 100 across all 4 cylinders. Fuel pressure and volume are within specs. Cam and crank position sensors both have signal and sync per scanner. TPS and MAP sensor voltages are withing range. Injectors pulse per noid light. Exhaust pipe was loosened to check for plugged convertor. I'm out of ideas. HELP!! dave284 Enthusiast Apr 27, 2008, 5:28 PM Post #2 of 3 (1675 views) Re: 98 Caravan no start Sign In What was the reading on the coil pack? Did you check for spark? autojoe User Apr 30, 2008, 3:18 PM Post #3 of 3 (1665 views) Re: 98 Caravan no start Sign In noid light just tells you injectors are being grounded by pcm....what it does not tell you is the pulse width the on time in milliseconds that the computer is grounding the injectors.Like dave said....Do you have spark?Spray some carb cleaner into intake and crank and see if it trys to start or starts and stalls.Let us know about spark and if starts and stalls when carb spray is sprayed into intake.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
