Sounds like your gas filter is clogged....if you want to do this at home, locate the filter, remove it and blow into it, if you can't blow through it, then replace it because it's bad...if you can blow clean through it with no resistance then it fine...chances are it's clogged.

My 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan won't move in drive

First, I'm not a Dodge Mechanic,
* I had a 2001 Caravan with the same problem.
* Sorry, but your transmission is bad. No way around this other than to change it. I was offered a rebuilt trans for a total of $2,300 (Hawaii). New ones runs $5K so I figured (2008) that the caravan was not going to last another 10 years (came with a 5 year warranty) I could live with only 5.
* I've found the caravan and similar mini vans all has trans problems.
* Find yourself a reliable trans shop and have it replaced.
* By the way. My nephew is driving the caravan as of 2018. Still good. (well the trans is. Ceiling cloth hangs, radiator was replaced 2016, Water pump 2017.......)

Pathfinder "cuts out" at 2,300 rpm

Replace your MAF, its a little pricey around $280.00 or so but this will clear the code but make sure you have the ECM reprogrammed to perform a "learning" sequence since sometimes the code will not clear even though the vehicle will run like new. This reprogramming will most likely have to be a dealer performed procedure.

I have a '03 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport AWD that the heater only blow hot air when going down the road. Van has a new radiator and new thermostat. Sometimes the blower will not kick on for a few

If the problem is a lack of air flow from the vents, and you suspect the blower motor is not running at times, you would need to test the blower relay and blower motor for power and ground when it is not working.

I have a 2001 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport w/ 3.3l flex fuel and the van is idling odd. I have changed the MAP sensor, the IAC sensor, and the spark plugs and wires, and no change.

Could be that your coil pack has gone bad. This is not a cheap piece though, so you will want to be sure.

Does it run fine when up off of idle, or does it also seem to be missing as you drive down the road.
