i am new to your forums and am an old school mech. I was given a 2004 Montana that has electrical issues i am thinking a battery because the old one was in there for a few years and the only way i can get any life out of the dash is to jump start it. then it will light up but no crank and as soon as i take the jumpers off it all dies so i am looking at a good used battery. but before i work on it the previous owner has to go through bankruptcy and get a title so i cannot sink any money into it yet that and the bees are everywhere, I've only got stung twice so I'm good for now. it is a nice van with all the options, a 3400 engine auto tranny, cruise, a/c, power seats and windows, if i get to keep the car it will be one of the nicest cars i have. the only other problem it has is the tranny clunks sometimes after it warms up, that has me concerned.
