Put the new evaporator core, o-rings, and expansion valve in.
A/C unit is all together again and clean. (new fan is coming in)
Put my gauge set and pulled a vacuum on the system to check if the system still leaks and remove air. Needle stayed at 29 in. VAC for over 5 hours in 80 degree sun. Still need to change the filter drier then I can vac and charge the system which will be the true test of the A/C system.
Next is to put the big ass dashboard back in the van :O
My DIY isnt as interesting as David Tracys Jeeps, but my projects are rust free :P

Rust free Caravan. Those things have pretty much become part of the earth again here in Manitoba, Canada.

Ahh, the old Heater Core/AC Evap assembly.
Voted one of THE WORST JOBS on a car.

Yup, from that generation they are pretty uncommon here in Nova Scotia as well now. We do have a fair number of the gen after that left though.
I miss the ‘90-’95 or so gen of Caravan. We had one growing up and I miss that lovable old hunk. Never let us down once - ours was a ‘93. This is the only pic I have of it!
