I have a 2002 Chrysler Town & Country.I've had it to a mechanic and a transmission guy and no one is able to tell me what's going on with it. It has a rough idle, cuts off occassionally, when in park/neutral and you rev the motor it pegs at 4,000 and just bounces there. There is also a strong smell of gas. They have given it a tune up, replaced the plugs and wires and now the speed sensor. And still running the same. HELP! Transmission guy told me to take it to a mechanic but I did and this guy had it for 2 weeks and said he couldn't figure it out!

Transmisison guy told me the only code he had was to replace the speed sensor. Someone mentioned to me the O2 sensor. Could this be the problem?
