ENGINE OIL
WARNING: NEW OR USED ENGINE OIL CAN BE
IRRITATING 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 PROBLEMS CAN RESULT. DO
NOT POLLUTE, DISPOSE OF USED ENGINE OIL
PROPERLY.
ENGINE OIL SPECIFICATION
CAUTION: Do not use non-detergent or straight
mineral oil when adding or changing crankcase
lubricant. Engine failure can result.
API SERVICE GRADE CERTIFIED
In gasoline engines, use an engine oil that is API
Service Grade Certified (Fig. 12). Standard engine oil
identification notations have been adopted to aid in
the proper selection of engine oil. The identifying
notations are located on the label of engine oil plastic
bottles and the top of engine oil cans. MOPAR only
provides engine oil that conforms to this certification.
SAE VISCOSITY
An SAE viscosity grade is used to specify the vis-
cosity of engine oil. SAE 10W-30 specifies a multiple
viscosity engine oil. These are specified with a dualSAE viscosity grade which indicates the cold-to-hot
temperature viscosity range. When choosing an
engine oil, consider the range of temperatures the
vehicle will be operated in before the next oil change.
Select an engine oil that is best suited to your area's
particular ambient temperature range and variation
(Fig. 13).
ENERGY CONSERVING OIL
An Energy Conserving type oil is recommended for
gasoline engines. The designation of ENERGY CON-
SERVING is located on the label of an engine oil con-
tainer.
OIL LEVEL INDICATOR (DIPSTICK)
The engine oil level indicator is located at the right
front of the engine, left of the generator on 5.9L
engines (Fig. 14).
CRANKCASE OIL LEVEL INSPECTION
CAUTION: Do not overfill crankcase with engine oil,
oil foaming and oil pressure loss can result.
To ensure proper lubrication of an engine, the
engine oil must be maintained at an acceptable level.
The acceptable levels are indicated between the ADD
and SAFE marks on the engine oil dipstick.
(1) Position vehicle on level surface.

SERVICE PROCEDURES (Continued)

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine (2) With engine OFF, allow approximately ten min-
utes for oil to settle to bottom of crankcase, remove
engine oil dipstick.
(3) Wipe dipstick clean.
(4) Install dipstick and verify it is seated in the
tube.
(5) Remove dipstick, with handle held above the
tip, take oil level reading.
(6) Add oil only if level is below the ADD mark on
dipstick.
ENGINE OIL CHANGE
Change engine oil at mileage and time intervals
described in the Maintenance Schedule. This infor-
mation can be found in your owner's manual.
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL
Run engine until achieving normal operating tem-
perature.
(1) Position the vehicle on a level surface and turn
engine off.
(2) Hoist and support vehicle on safety stands.
Refer to Hoisting and Jacking Recommendations.
(3) Remove oil fill cap.
(4) Place a suitable drain pan under crankcase
drain.
(5) Remove drain plug from crankcase and allow
oil to drain into pan. Inspect drain plug threads for
stretching or other damage. Replace drain plug and
gasket if damaged.
(6) Install drain plug in crankcase.(7) Lower vehicle and fill crankcase with specified
type and amount of engine oil described in this sec-
tion.
(8) Install oil fill cap.
(9) Start engine and inspect for leaks.
(10) Stop engine and inspect oil level.
ENGINE OIL FILTER CHANGE
FILTER SPECIFICATION
All engines are equipped with a high quality full-
flow, disposable type oil filter. DaimlerChrysler Cor-
poration recommends a Mopar or equivalent oil filter
be used.
OIL FILTER REMOVAL
(1) Position a drain pan under the oil filter.
(2) Using a suitable oil filter wrench loosen filter.
(3) Rotate the oil filter counterclockwise to remove
it from the cylinder block oil filter boss (Fig. 15).
(4) When filter separates from adapter nipple, tip
gasket end upward to minimize oil spill. Remove fil-
ter from vehicle.
(5) With a wiping cloth, clean the gasket sealing
surface (Fig. 16) of oil and grime.
OIL FILTER INSTALLATION
(1) Lightly lubricate oil filter gasket with engine
oil or chassis grease.
(2) Thread filter onto adapter nipple. When gasket
makes contact with sealing surface, (Fig. 16) hand
tighten filter one full turn, do not over tighten.
(3) Add oil, verify crankcase oil level and start
engine. Inspect for oil leaks.

CAUTION: Be sure that the tapped holes maintain
the original center line.

fuel, oil, etc.).
(7) Make sure all fluid has been removed from the
cylinders.
(8) Repair engine or components as necessary to
prevent this problem from occurring again.
(9) Squirt engine oil into the cylinders to lubricate
the walls. This will prevent damage on restart.
(10) Install new spark plugs.
(11) Drain engine oil. Remove and discard the oil
filter.
(12) Install the drain plug. Tighten the plug to 34
N´m (25 ft. lbs.) torque.
(13) Install a new oil filter.
(14) Fill engine crankcase with the specified
amount and grade of oil.
(15) Connect the negative cable to the battery.
(16) Start the engine and check for any leaks.
VALVE TIMING
(1) Turn crankshaft until the No.6 exhaust valve is
closing and No.6 intake valve is opening.
(2) Insert a 6.350 mm (1/4 inch) spacer between
rocker arm pad and stem tip of No.1 intake valve.
Allow spring load to bleed tappet down giving in
effect a solid tappet.
(3) Install a dial indicator so plunger contacts
valve spring retainer as nearly perpendicular as pos-
sible. Zero the indicator.
(4) Rotate the crankshaft clockwise (normal run-
ning direction) until the valve has lifted 0.863 mm
(0.034 inch). The timing of the crankshaft should
now read from 10É before top dead center to 2É after
top dead center. Remove spacer.
CAUTION: DO NOT turn crankshaft any further
clockwise as valve spring might bottom and result
in serious damage.
If reading is not within specified limits:
²Check sprocket index marks.
²Inspect timing chain for wear.
²Check accuracy of DC mark on timing indicator.
VALVE SERVICE
VALVE CLEANING
Clean valves thoroughly. Discard burned, warped
and cracked valves.
Remove carbon and varnish deposits from inside of
valve guides with a reliable guide cleaner.
VALVE INSPECTION
Measure valve stems for wear. If wear exceeds
0.051 mm (0.002 inch), replace the valve.
VALVE GUIDES
Measure valve stem guide clearance as follows:
(1) Install Valve Guide Sleeve Tool C-3973 over
valve stem and install valve (Fig. 18). The special
sleeve places the valve at the correct height for
checking with a dial indicator.
(2) Attach Dial Indicator Tool C-3339 to cylinder
head and set it at right angle of valve stem being
measured (Fig. 19).
(3) Move valve to and from the indicator. The total
dial indicator reading should not exceed 0.432 mm
(0.017 inch). Ream the guides for valves with over-
size stems if dial indicator reading is excessive or if
the stems are scuffed or scored.
Service valves with oversize stems are available as
shown below.
Slowly turn reamer by hand and clean guide thor-
oughly before installing new valve.Ream the valve
guides from standard to 0.381 mm (0.015 inch).
