Question
I have a 2000 montana w/ 130k miles that has been fantastic. I have had problems with the cooling system for years and finally replaced the radiator, all hoses, spark plugs and serviced the transmission. 1 month later the van begins to intermittenly lose power and hesistates barely making it up hills at times. I thought it was the transmission but the following morning it would not start. I towed to Mechanic and they checked trans and saw no problem. They found oil leak on crank sensor and fixed leak and replaced crank, crank shaft positioner and cam sensor, damper and seal. They cleaned throttle body of sludge. Ran fantastic for 2 days and began having same problems of power loss and hesitating. Took back to mechanic and they replaced battery cables. Runs fine and stalls on wife 1 day later. Take it in and they find a leak in cooling system that as it heats up spray onto electronics causing shorts. Fixes leak adn advise me to get rid of the car. Car will barely run as I drive it home
