My 2000 dodge caravan was sent to garage for blown head gaskit they sent both heads to machine shop then reinstalled engine had bad miss took back said they found problem but still missing took back again...

May have not reconditioned the heads correctly may have a valve issues because the valve spring is bad or could be an injector or gaskets could be leaking on intake manifold could be a lot of different things that could have happened when they serviced the heads. Best thing to do is compression check find out the range for your compression to be at on the gague. That will tell you what’s possibly happening inside the engine. But you have to look in a chilton or haynes repair manual it will tell you what’s up when you read the compression testing gague.

What tools do i need to change the front brakes on the dodge caravan

Once the tire is removed you need a set of HEX sockets with ratchet and a C-clamp to compress the cylinders with one old shoe between the clamp and cylinder.Hope this helps..........Make sure to apply energ brake and block rear wheels front and back.
