ARRRRRRRRRRRRRR Here we are getting ready for this much needed trip back home to ohio for Christmas tomorrow. So happy gas prices are down and the trip wont $$$ kill us. WE went out yetserday bout 15 or so miles from home, went to the mall, grabbed some lunch....needed gas......we fill up for the trip......tank was very close to empty...took 24 gallons...( venture van) Its always been reliable, no issues. we drive about 10 miles heading back towards home and decide to stop and get a quick oil change, since dale hasnt had time to do it himself. We pull inot the oil change place and just then the van starts sputtering, and running kind of rough.What the H*** ! We get the oil change and go to leave...van still sputtering....and theres a clicking, knocking noise. sputtering worse at low speeds or stops almost like its gonna stall out. not so bad at high speed.......make it home fine... Dale put a can of seafoam in tank...... we dont know whats wrong.....has a guy he knows gonna look at this morning. Im about fit to be tied ! hoping it isnt anything serious and soemthing we can fix easily and quickly......wondering if we got some bad gas? doesnt think its the spark plugs but a possibility. Did a quick online search for a car rental to drive to ohio just in case........ouch , blows my mind how much that costs! I cant imagine how mad i will be if i dont get to go home.......and its too late to ship presents, etc. ok, i needed to whine a little.........im done now........ anyone have any ideas what it could be?
