My stepdaughter/daughter-in-law (it's a long story) lives in Pensacola; I have sailboat friends around Tampa, I can look them up. My oldest son, who lives in Lafayette, La, goes back and forth to Pensacola, Fl., with my grandson so he can spend time with his mother, my stepdaughter again the long story), and he, like me, is an excellent mechanic who does HVAC now. I'm in Houston, Tx, so if you're in a bind anywhere along that area, we can help. Now, this would be for someone stranded, and handicapped in some way that they need help, not someone looking for road service, I hope that this is understood.
I understand the frustration of your disability, I have a friend with MS, advanced, and I suffer from COPD. The same applies to me, I can fix it, but it takes a while to do because I get very breathless doing simple things people take for granted. It takes a long time, for instance, for me to change my tire because I have to rest and let my inefficient damaged lungs re-oxygenate my blood to feed what muscles I have left between each step.
One thing in your favor is a 1989 vehicle is much easier to maintain than a new one with the OBD computers, and wrecking yards still have some old Plymouth Voyager parts hanging around, but most have been crushed, what a shame. I had a 1999 with the 3.8 that had 300,000 plus miles, and with all the rear seats removed, I put a full-sized refrigerator-freezer in that puppy with room to spare. The old boy who bought it from me for $500 bucks is still driving it! My favorite vehicle, my baby, is my 1994 Jeep Cherokee 2-door with the 4.0 six; easy to two behind my RV, but I'll have a hard time parting with my 2000 WJ Grand Cherokee 4x4, I love her too. Same engine, both super easy to maintain for me with my disability, and they're just tough as nails. If you make it to Houston, I'd like to see that old Turbo Voyager; they're rare as hens' teeth. For those of you who don't know what these little vans were, I found this video clip of one that will give you a proper appreciation for what they are. Talk about a sleeper in plain-jane-white, oh my! :exclamation:
Turbo Dodge Voyager
That is a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder engine by the way.
