ENGINE BREAK-IN
CAUTION: Wide open throttle operation in low
gears, before engine break-in period is complete,
can damage engine.
After first starting a new engine, allow it to idle for
15 seconds before shifting into a drive gear. Also:
²Drive the vehicle at varying speeds less than 88
km/h (55 mph) for the first 480 km (300 miles).
²Avoid fast acceleration and sudden stops.
²Do not drive at full-throttle for extended periods of
time.
²Do not drive at constant speeds.
²Do not idle the engine excessively.
A special break-in engine oil is not required. The
original engine oil installed is a high quality, energy
conserving lubricant. Special break-in oils are not
recommended. These oils could interfere with the
normal piston ring seating process.
New engines tend to consume more fuel and oil un-
til after the break-in period has ended.
ENGINE OIL
WARNING: NEW OR USED ENGINE OIL CAN BE IR-
RITATING TO THE SKIN. AVOID PROLONGED OR
REPEATED SKIN CONTACT WITH ENGINE OIL.
CONTAMINANTS IN USED ENGINE OIL, CAUSED BY
INTERNAL COMBUSTION, CAN BE HAZARDOUS TO
YOUR HEALTH. THOROUGHLY WASH EXPOSED
SKIN WITH SOAP AND WATER.
DO NOT WASH SKIN WITH GASOLINE, DIESEL
FUEL, THINNER, OR SOLVENTS, HEALTH PROB-
LEMS CAN RESULT.
DO NOT POLLUTE, DISPOSE OF USED ENGINE
OIL PROPERLY. CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR GOV-
ERNMENT AGENCY FOR LOCATION OF COLLEC-
TION CENTER IN YOUR AREA.
ENGINE OIL SPECIFICATION
CAUTION: Do not use non-detergent or straight
mineral oil when adding or changing crankcase lu-
bricant. Engine failure can result.
API SERVICE GRADE CERTIFIED
Use an engine oil that is API Service Grade Certi-
fied or an oil that conforms to the API Service Grade
SH or SH/CD. MOPAR provides engine oils that con-
form to all of these service grades.
SAE VISCOSITY
An SAE viscosity grade is used to specify the vis-
cosity grade of engine oil. SAE 30 specifies a single
viscosity engine oil. Engine oils also have multiple
viscosities. These are specified with a dual SAE vis-
cosity grade which indicates the cold-to-hot tempera-
ture viscosity range. Select an engine oil that is best
suited to your particular temperature range and vari-
ation (Fig.1).
ENERGY CONSERVING OIL
An Energy Conserving type oil is recommeded for
gasoline engines. They are designated as either EN-
ERGY CONSERVING or ENERGY CONSERVING
II.

ENGINE SUPPORTS
The general condition of the engine supports
should be inspected when engine compartment or un-
der vehicle service is performed.
INSPECTION
(1) Test the hardware that attaches the engine cyl-
inder block to the engine support brackets (Figs. 11
and 12) for the specified tightening torque.(2) Inspect the rubber in the engine support cush-
ions for softening and swelling. Slight surface deteri-
oration and wear at the ends will not affect the
functioning of an engine support.
ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT
Inspect and adjust drive belts at the interval de-
scribed in the Lubrication and Maintenance Sched-
ules. Refer to General Information section of this
group. For proper inspection and adjustment proce-
dures, see Group 7, Cooling System.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The exhaust system should be inspected when un-
der vehicle service is performed or as specified in the
Lubrication and Maintenance Schedules.
INSPECTION
When inspecting an exhaust system, inspect for
cracked or loose joints, stripped screw/bolt threads,
corrosion damage, and worn or broken hangers
(Slight cracking in rubber isolator or hanger is ac-
ceptable). Replace all components that are corroded
or damaged. Do not attempt repair. Also, inspect for
the following obvious conditions and correct as neces-
sary:
²Exhaust system leaks, damage, misalignment.
²Contact with body panels metal or the frame.
²Catalytic converter bulging or excessive heat dam-
age.
CAUTION: A catalytic converter will become con-
taminated if leaded gasoline is burned in the en-
gine. If this occurs, the complete converter must be
replaced.
For proper service procedures see Group 11, Ex-
haust System and Intake Manifold.
AIR-CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR
LUBRICANT AND REFRIGERANT
The lubricant level in the air-conditioner compres-
sor should be checked if there are indications that oil
was lost. Loss of lubricating oil usually accompanies
a loss of refrigerant.
For additional information involving the A/C sys-
tem, refer to Group 24, Heater And Air Conditioning.

switch connects circuit A1 from fuse 6 in the Power
Distribution Center (PDC) to circuit A48. Circuit A48
supplies battery voltage to fuse 5 in the fuse block.
Fuse 5 supplies power to the heat mode switch on
circuit C7.
Circuit C43 from the heat mode switch splices to
supply voltage to the blower motor switch and the
blower motor resistor block. The blower motor switch
sets blower motor speed to HIGH, M1, M2, or LOW.
When the blower motor switch is in the LOW posi-
tion, circuit C43 from the heat mode supplies voltage
to the resistor block. Voltage does not pass through
the blower motor switch in the LOW position.In the M1 position, the blower motor switch sup-
plies voltage to the resistor block on circuit C4. From
circuit C4, voltage passes through three resistors in
the resistor block to the blower motor on circuit C1.
In the M2 position, the blower motor supplies volt-
age to the resistor block on circuit C6. From circuit
C6 voltage flows through two resistors to the blower
motor on circuit C1.
In the HIGH position, the blower motor switch con-
nects directly to the blower motor on circuit C1. Volt-
age does not pass through the resistor block.
Circuit Z1 provides ground for the blower motor.

age to the resistor block on circuit C6. From circuit
C6 voltage flows through two resistors to the blower
motor on circuit C1.
In the HIGH position, the blower motor switch con-
nects directly to the blower motor on circuit C1. Volt-
age does not pass through the resistor block.
Circuit Z1 provides ground for the blower motor.
AIR CONDITIONING OPERATION
When the A/C-heater control switch is moved to an
A/C position or the defrost position, the Powertrain
Control Module (PCM) receives the A/C select signal
on circuit C90. Circuit C90 connects to cavity 28 of
the PCM.
Circuit also C90 splices to the low pressure switch
and to supply battery voltage to the coil side of the
A/C compressor clutch relay. If the low pressure
switch is closed, circuit C90 connects to circuit C21.
Circuit C21 supplies battery voltage to the A/C cy-
cling switch. Circuit C91 from the A/C cycling switch
provides the A/C request signal to the PCM. Circuit
C91 connects to cavity 27 of the PCM. Circuit Z1 pro-
vides ground for the A/C cycling switch.
After receiving the A/C request signal, the PCM
supplies ground for the A/C compressor clutch relay
on circuit C13. Circuit F12 from fuse 11 in the PDC
supplies battery voltage to the contact side of the A/C
compressor clutch relay. When the PCM grounds the
relay, the contacts close and connect circuit F12 to
circuit C3. Circuit C3 feeds the A/C compressor
clutch.
Also, after receiving the A/C request signal, the
PCM supplies ground for the coil side of the radiator
fan relay on circuit C27 (4.0L engine). Circuit C27
connects to cavity 31 of the PCM. Circuit F12 sup-
plies battery voltage to the coil side of the relay.
