    As titled.
    The 98 T&C I have is close to 100,000mi.
    What should I watch or pay special attention to when this van is close to
    that mileage?

    There was no indication of what engine your T&C has. If it has the 3.3
    or 3.8, you have a chain rather than a belt. I don't believe that a
    change interval is specified for the chain. It will usually last to
    150,000 mi or more.

  3. What motor is in your minivan? It is quite possible your motor uses a timing
    chain, not a belt. They usually don't require periodic changing, like a belt
    does.
