My 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan surged a few times and quit from 70 mph . I used inertia to get us off of the freeway . The car will start for 1 second or so , and then quit . It seems like fuel starvation , but the part store says there is no fuel filter ( ! ? ! ? ! ? ) . Any suggestions ?
Could be the fuel pump or pump relay going bad.To check relay simply replace it with another.It also could be the crank sensor or cam sensor.
Dear Sir , I tried your idea . The horn relay was the same , and the horn worked . I swaped them , and the horn still worked . but the car still wouldn't start . Both I , and my passenger checked , and rechecked the fuel gauge . It showed I had 3/8 of a tank of gas . It didn't . It was indeed out of gas . By reasoning it out from the trip oddometer , I realised there was a chance the car was just out of gas , so I put some in , and it started . I don't find a way to delete this posting , so , please consider it solved . Thank you .
Well that is good you got it going again.Looks like you will be needing a new new fuel guage now.
It's just a guess , but it is probably the fuel gauge sender which is a part of the fuel pump assembly .

SOURCE: heater won't get hot on 2005 dodge caravan
there could be an air lock in the system, pluged heator core, a bad thermostate or control modual. try bleeding the air out through the bleeder screew if there is no heat after that have the control modual tested if its okay try having the cooling system flushed then if it still doesnt heat intall new termostate

those sensors could cause the issue, clean the MAF 1st, also clean the idle system using the following procedure, the IAC can cause cruise surge. I use this to cure these problems all the time.
Here is the most common cause of surges and stalls and low idle, it is the idle speed control air-bypass valve (IAC) and throttle valve, they get full of gunk over the miles and cause idle issues (stalls, low idle) like yours, Get a can of intake cleaner from any local parts store, not carb spray, intake cleaner, it is made by a company called CRC, remove the air intake hose to the engine, hold the idle high so the engine won't stall, then spray the can of cleaner into the intake while keeping the engine running, use at least 1/2 the can, shut down the engine and disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then restart and complete a number of mixed driving cycles, town, freeway, stop and go etc., after a few days the problem will go away as the system will relearn to the clean intake.
