INTRODUCTION
Lubrication and maintenance is divided into re-
quired and recommended service tasks. The required
service tasks must be completed to verify the emis-
sion controls function correctly. The recommended
service tasks should be completed to maintain safety
and durability.
This information will assist the service personnel
in providing maximum protection for each owner's
vehicle.
Conditions can vary with individual driving habits.
It is necessary to schedule maintenance as a time in-
terval as well as a distance interval.
It is the owner's responsibility to determine the ap-
plicable driving condition. Also to have the vehicle
serviced according to the maintenance schedule, and
to pay for the necessary parts and labor.
Additional maintenance and lubrication informa-
tion is listed in the Owner's Manual.
INTERNATIONAL SYMBOLS
Chrysler Corporation uses international symbols to
identify engine compartment lubricant and fluid in-
spection and fill locations (Fig. 1).
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
All gasoline engines require the use of unleaded
gasoline to reduce the potentially harmful effects of
lead to the environment. Also unleaded fuel is neces-
sary to prevent damage to the catalytic converter/O2sensor. The fuel must have a minimum octane rating
of 87 based on the (R + M)/2 calculation method.
CAUTION: UNLEADED FUEL ONLY must be used in
vehicles equipped with a catalyst emission control
system. All vehicles have reminders printed on the
instrument panel below the fuel gauge and on the
fuel filler door. The vehicles also have fuel filler
tubes that are specially designed to accept only the
small-diameter dispensing nozzles. It is illegal to
bypass the design of an unleaded fuel filler tube
and contaminate the fuel system.

IGNITION SECONDARY CIRCUIT DIAGNOSIS
CHECKING FOR SPARK
CAUTION: When disconnecting a high voltage cable
from a spark plug or from the distributor cap, twist
the rubber boot slightly (1/2 turn) to break it loose
(Fig. 12). Grasp the boot (not the cable) and pull it
off with a steady, even force.
(1) Disconnect the ignition coil secondary cable
from center tower of the distributor cap. Hold the ca-
ble terminal approximately 12 mm (1/2 in.) from a
good engine ground (Fig. 13).
WARNING: BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN THE ENGINE
IS CRANKING. DO NOT PUT YOUR HANDS NEAR
THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR THE FAN. DO NOT WEAR
LOOSE FITTING CLOTHING.
(2) Rotate (crank) the engine with the starter mo-
tor and observe the cable terminal for a steady arc. If
steady arcing does not occur, inspect the secondary
coil cable. Refer to Spark Plug Cables in this group.
Also inspect the distributor cap and rotor for cracksor burn marks. Repair as necessary. If steady arcing
occurs, connect ignition coil cable to the distributor
cap.
(3) Remove a cable from one spark plug.
(4) Using insulated pliers, hold the cable terminal
approximately 12 mm (1/2 in.) from the engine cylin-
der head or block while rotating the engine with the
starter motor. Observe the spark plug cable terminal
for an arc. If steady arcing occurs, it can be expected
that the ignition secondary system is operating cor-
rectly.(note that if the ignition coil cable is re-
moved for this test, instead of a spark plug
cable, the spark intensity will be much higher.)
If steady arcing occurs at the spark plug cables, but
the engine will not start, connect the DRB scan tool.
Refer to the Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures ser-
vice manual.
FAILURE TO START TEST
To prevent unnecessary diagnostic time and wrong
test results, the previous Checking For Spark test
should be performed prior to this test.
WARNING: SET PARKING BRAKE OR BLOCK THE
DRIVE WHEELS BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THIS
TEST.
(1) Unplug the ignition coil harness connector at
the coil (Fig. 14).
(2) Connect a set of small jumper wires (18 gauge
or smaller) between the disconnected harness termi-
nals and the ignition coil terminals. To determine po-
larity at connector and coil, refer to the Wiring
Diagrams section.
(3) Attach one lead of a voltmeter to the positive
(12 volt) jumper wire. Attach the negative side of
voltmeter to a good ground. Determine that sufficient
battery voltage (12.4 volts) is present for the starting
and ignition systems.

temperature ranges. This depends upon the thick-
ness and length of the center electrodes porcelain in-
sulator.)
SPARK PLUG OVERHEATING
Overheating is indicated by a white or gray center
electrode insulator that also appears blistered (Fig.
25). The increase in electrode gap will be consider-
ably in excess of 0.001 inch per 1000 miles of opera-
tion. This suggests that a plug with a cooler heat
range rating should be used. Over advanced ignition
timing, detonation and cooling system malfunctions
can also cause spark plug overheating.
SPARK PLUG SECONDARY CABLES
TESTING
Spark plug cables are sometimes referred to as sec-
ondary ignition cables or secondary wires. The cables
transfer electrical current from the distributor to in-
dividual spark plugs at each cylinder. The spark plug
cables are of nonmetallic construction and have a
built in resistance. The cables provide suppression of
radio frequency emissions from the ignition system.Check the high-tension cable connections for good
contact at the ignition coil, distributor cap towers
and spark plugs. Terminals should be fully seated.
The terminals and spark plug covers should be in
good condition. Terminals should fit tightly to the ig-
nition coil, distributor cap and spark plugs. The
spark plug cover (boot) of the cable should fit tight
around the spark plug insulator. Loose cable connec-
tions can cause corrosion and increase resistance, re-
sulting in shorter cable service life.
Clean the high tension cables with a cloth moist-
ened with a nonflammable solvent and wipe dry.
Check for brittle or cracked insulation.
When testing secondary cables for damage with an
oscilloscope, follow the instructions of the equipment
manufacturer.
If an oscilloscope is not available, spark plug cables
may be tested as follows:
CAUTION: Do not leave any one spark plug cable
disconnected for longer than necessary during test-
ing. This may cause possible heat damage to the
catalytic converter. Total test time must not exceed
ten minutes.
With the engine not running, connect one end of a
test probe to a good ground. Start the engine and run
the other end of the test probe along the entire
length of all spark plug cables. If cables are cracked
or punctured, there will be a noticeable spark jump
from the damaged area to the test probe. The cable
running from the ignition coil to the distributor cap
can be checked in the same manner. Cracked, dam-
aged or faulty cables should be replaced with resis-
tance type cable. This can be identified by the words
ELECTRONIC SUPPRESSION printed on the cable
jacket.
Use an ohmmeter to test for open circuits, exces-
sive resistance or loose terminals. Remove the dis-
tributor cap from the distributor.Do not remove
cables from cap.Remove cable from spark plug.
Connect ohmmeter to spark plug terminal end of ca-
ble and to corresponding electrode in distributor cap.
Resistance should be 250 to 1000 Ohms per inch of
cable. If not, remove cable from distributor cap tower
and connect ohmmeter to the terminal ends of cable.
If resistance is not within specifications as found in
the Spark Plug Cable Resistance chart, replace the
cable. Test all spark plug cables in this manner.

INDICATOR LAMPS
If an individual indicator lamp is inoperative, see
the diagnostic procedure under the heading for that
lamp. If more than one indicator lamp or a combina-
tion of lamps and gauges in the gauge area of the in-
strument cluster is inoperative, see Gauges in this
section for diagnosis.
If more than one indicator lamp in the tell-tale
area of the cluster is inoperative, perform the follow-
ing:
(1) Check fuse 17 (fuse 26 - RHD) in the fuseblock
module. If OK, go to next step. If not OK, replace
fuse.
(2) Check for battery voltage at fuse 17 (fuse 26 -
RHD) with ignition switch in ON position. If OK, go
to next step. If not OK, repair circuit to ignition
switch and/or refer to Group 8D - Ignition Systems
for testing of ignition switch.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect battery
negative cable. Remove instrument cluster bezel and
cluster assembly. Unplug cluster (tell-tale) connector

ON. Lamp should light. If OK, remove jumper wire
and go to next step. If not OK, replace bulb.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect battery
negative cable and unplug cluster connector B. Check
for continuity between cavity 6 of cluster connector B
and a good ground. There should be no continuity. If
OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair short circuit as
required.(4) Check continuity between cavity 6 of cluster
connector B and cavity 52 of ABS control module con-
nector (Fig. 6). There should be continuity. If OK, re-
fer to Group 5 - Brakes for diagnosis of ABS control
module. If not OK, repair open circuit as required.
BRAKE WARNING LAMP
The diagnosis found here addresses an inoperative
lamp condition. If the brake warning lamp stays on
with the ignition switch in the ON position and the
parking brake released, refer to Group 5 - Brakes for
diagnosis. If no service brake or parking brake prob-
lem is found, the following procedure will help locate
a short circuit or faulty switch.
(1) Unplug parking brake switch connector. Turn
ignition switch to START position. Lamp should
light. Release ignition switch to ON position. Lamp
should go OFF. If OK, go to step 10. If not OK, go to
next step.
