Blown head gasket is the likely culprit. It could be a blown head gasket, but if the engine isn't sputtering or running rough, that is unlikely. It could be a leaking head gasket, but unless it is vomitting water when the accerator is depressed, this is unlikely. The most likely cause is a common one for that year and model Chrysler/Plymouth minivan. The lifters in the engine are held up by clips. It is a common occurrance for these clips to loosen and drop after about 70,000 miles. The exhaust will smoke, it may use a little more oil, but it is not a critical problem. It can be fixed, but it is expensive, and not altogether necessary.
