In my case I seem to have a squeaky shifter bushing, the one above the fuel tank. I've been pondering how to try to get some lube to it without dropping the tank. Incidentally, does anyone else have trouble getting their spare tire back in after taking it out? I had mine out once and that pan was a real bear to get hooked back up. It wanted to stop one inch below where the hook would engage. Is this common, or is something screwed up on my van? _ _ __ _ _ _| | | | David M.
