More Van Problems

Our 1999 Dodge Ram Van has over 112,000 miles on it (mostly geocaching miles) and is showing the signs of its age. We spent over $800 last week to fix problems that caused the Check Engine light to come on and a squeal under the hood. We took it back today with the same symptoms. It would not squeal for the mechanic and they said the number 3 cylinder misfire is causing the Check Engine light to come on. They wanted to do a $1500 valve job. It’s running fine so we told them, “no thank you”. Lee looked the trouble code up in his book and said there were about 15 things that can cause the Check Engine light to come on with that trouble code, one of which is a sticky valve. I guess we’ll just wait until we’re broke down out somewhere and then we’ll get it fixed.
