Hello I have a 1994 dodge caravan 3.0 mitsubishi v6. The van runs well but from time to time when I take off from a light or from a completed stop the van hesitates a little, then I find myself applying more throttle, Then the transmission will boggle down after that then pick up speed then my speedometer will go up then down. Then the check engine light will stay on. Then after all that the van feels normal. What in the world can be wrong?
