Where is engine block drain plug on 1997 Chevy astro van?

on v-6 the oil filter is the drain

Dude . . . the oil pan drain plug is near the oil filter on the passenger side very close to the transmission bell housing. Removing the oil filter will drain some of the oil, sure, but if you want to empty the crankcase you will need to pull the drain plug. Check your manual for the correct torque to use when replacing the plug and don't forget to use a new gasket.

There is no drain plug for the transmission pan so this is kind of hard to screw up. Just check your fluid levels after draining the oil if you're concerned you might have emptied the wrong thing. As always, I am not a mechanic and your mileage may vary. .

How do you replace rear shocks for hatch?

Two different types, one is held on with clips and the other one screws in. Support the hatch so you can work on it. At the end if there is a clip around the end of the shaft, it pulls off. The shock clips over or rides on a ball. The clip goes 3/4 of the way around the shaft of the shock and locks it to the ball.

If there is no clip, the ends screw out of the side of the hatch and the body. Probably use a 12 mm wrench on most of them. A few do have a mounting plate on the end that should have 2 bolts or screws. If you have the new one for your car, looking at the ends will tell you how to remove the old one.

Are you using any gas stabilizer while the van sits? Also are you leaving the van with a full tank to prevent condensation? If the tank is not fuel, condensation can form inside and that turns into water in your gas. USe an additive liek Stabil when you park the van and make sure the tank is topped off. Gas will deteriorate over time, just how much time has a lot to do with conditions.

Where are the wiper relays in a 1997 GMC Safari?

The wiper relays in my 1995 Safari were inside the wiper motor housing. They kept going out because water would get into the housing. If you unscrew the front of the cover, you will see the circuits and contacts. YOu can clean the contacts, but the best bet is just to replace the entire thing.

on my 98 safari i thought water was getting into my wiper motor, since the only time they acted up is when it was raining,and they would work - when they felt like it - or when i would flex the wiring connector which led into the wiper motor - called my dealer they said it would be the circuit board, I removed the screws from the cover of the wiper motor which is the circuit board and with the wiring harness still plugged into it i pulled it towards me to reveal the components on the other side, the relay is the first the you see when you follow the wiring into the circuit board, you will see 4 to 5 solder points connecting the relay to the circuit board, these solder joints worked loose, to repair simply resolder adding additional solder.

The boards are releativley cheap at the auto stores, but before spending the money try unplugging and replugging the connectors to the boards.
