1993 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN 3.3V6

I have a 1993 dodge grand caravan 3.3-v6 once it gets hot it turns off,and
won't start until it cools down. I have replaced the fuel pump, computer,
coilpack. IT still won't stay running.

you will get it eventually if you replace enough parts or you can see if
there are any fault codes in the system.
And before throwing all these parts on it why not try to verify if it is
spark or fuel causing the problem?

TO MR GLEAN BEASLEY I HAVE REPLASED THE SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES CHECKED TO
SEE IF ALL CYLINDERS ARE FIREING AS WELL, ALSO REPLACED FUEL RAIL DO TO
LEAK BUT WHEN I CHECKED WITH MY SNAP ON SCANNER IT HAS NO FAULT CODES TO
READ SO IM STUMPED.BUT I DON'T HAVE A FUEL PRESSURE GAGE TO CHECK THE
PRESSURE.

Ok, assuming you have spark, have you tried to spray some gum cutter or
throttle body cleaner into the throttle body to see if it tries to start
that way?
You say you have a scan tool, you haven't told me what the cam and crank
sensor was doing as you were cranking the vehicle? Does it show cam and
crank????

What fault codes are there? why replace the fuel pump because of no fire? DO
you even know if it has fuel?spark? compression?

To all who are experiening the problem of their Dodge Caravans driving for
a while and then stopping all of a sudden. Examole: you are on the
freeway and then you need to accelerate and you going along at a good clip
and all of a sudden it just stops running so you pull over to the shoulder
and let it cool down then it starts.
What I discovered after replacing several parts includung the computer,
and the crank shaft posoition sensor is that it is a design flaw in the
connector for the crankshaft position sensor located on the to of the
transmission. When it get hot it pushes itself apart just enough not to
be detected. That's why the Dodge dealers can't find the problem when you
take it in.
The fix is as simple as pushing it (the connector) together and putting a
black zip tie on it to keep it securely together. Hope this solves your
problem. Chrysler should redesign the connectors on their vehicles. It
would them and us a lot of money and frustration.

A design flaw on a 1993 vehicle? That's 13 years old!! How can that be a
design flaw?
