ENGINE
Removal (Ram Van/Wagon)
1) Release fuel pressure. See FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE.
Disconnect negative battery cable. Drain cooling system and engine
oil. Remove and discard oil filter.
2) Remove engine cover, air cleaner and oil dipstick.
Discharge A/C system (if equipped) using approved refrigerant
recovery/recycling equipment. Disconnect A/C lines at condenser, and
plug openings. Remove A/C compressor. Disconnect fan shroud.
3) Remove front bumper, grille and support brace. Disconnect
coolant hoses. Remove radiator, condenser and support as an assembly.
4) Remove upper fan shroud. Remove power steering pump with
hoses attached, and set aside. Remove air pump, spark plug wires and
distributor cap. Disconnect necessary electrical wiring, coolant hoses
and vacuum hoses. Disconnect fuel lines. See FUEL LINE DISCONNECT

Removal
Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove drive belts from
crankshaft pulley. Remove fan and shroud. Remove crankshaft pulley and
vibration damper. Pry oil seal from front cover.
Installation
1) Use Seal Installer (6635) for seal installation. Installe\
r
should fit with minimum interference. If installer does not fit, front
cover must be removed and installed properly.
2) Position small diameter of oil seal over seal installer.
Using vibration damper bolt, tighten seal installer to draw seal into
position. Remove vibration damper bolt and seal installer. To complete
installation, reverse removal procedure.
FRONT COVER
Removal
1) Disconnect battery. Drain coolant. Remove power steering
pump (if equipped). Remove water pump. See WATER PUMP.
2) Remove crankshaft pulley and vibration damper. Loosen oil
pan bolts. Remove oil pan-to-front cover bolts on each side of oil
pan. Remove bolts, front cover and gasket. DO not damage oil pan
gasket.
Installation
1) Ensure sealing surfaces are clean. Apply a 1/8" (3.17 mm)\
bead of RTV sealant to oil pan gasket. Install gasket, front cover and
bolts. DO NOT tighten bolts at this time.
2) Install front cover oil seal. See FRONT COVER OIL SEAL.
Tighten front cover, oil pan and then vibration damper bolts to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table. To complete
installation, reverse removal procedure.
TIMING CHAIN
Inspection
1) Remove front cover. See FRONT COVER. Position ruler at
camshaft sprocket, near timing chain link, to check timing chain
stretch.
NOTE: When applying torque to camshaft sprocket bolt, DO NOT allow
crankshaft to move. It may be necessary to hold crankshaft.
2) Place torque wrench on camshaft sprocket bolt. Apply 30
ft. lbs. (41 N.m) torque with cylinder heads installed, or 15 ft. lbs.\
(20 N.m) with cylinder heads removed, on camshaft sprocket bolt in
direction of engine rotation. Note reading on ruler.
3) Apply same amount of torque in opposite direction and note
amount of timing chain movement on ruler. If movement exceeds 1/8" (3.
17 mm), replace timing chain.
Removal
Rotate crankshaft so timing marks are aligned. See Fig. 8.
Remove camshaft sprocket bolt, camshaft sprocket, timing chain and
crankshaft sprocket.
Installation
1) Install timing chain and sprockets. Ensure timing marks
are aligned. See Fig. 8. Install camshaft sprocket bolt and tighten to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.
2) Ensure camshaft end play is within specification. See
CAMSHAFT table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS. If end play is not within
specification, replace thrust plate located between camshaft sprocket

NOTE: Park/neutral switch may also be referred to as park/neutral
position switch.
Removal (A/T Models)
Raise and support vehicle. Disconnect 3-pin electrical
connector from park/neutral switch. Park/neutral switch is located on
driver's side of transmission case, near shift linkage. See Fig. 10.
Unscrew park/neutral switch from transmission case. Remove seal ring
from park/neutral switch.
Installation
1) Apply parking brake. Place shift lever in Neutral. Ensure
park/neutral switch operating levers in transmission are centered in
the park/neutral switch opening on transmission case.
2) Using NEW seal ring, install park/neutral switch. Tighten
park/neutral switch to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
Install electrical connector. Add Mopar Plus 7176 ATF as necessary.
POWER STEERING PRESSURE SWITCH
Removal & Installation (Dakota 2.5L)
1) Power steering pressure switch is located in pressure line
near power steering pump. See Fig. 11. Disconnect electrical connector
at power steering pressure switch.
2) Place small container below power steering pressure switch
to collect power steering fluid. Remove power steering pressure switch
from pressure line while using a back-up wrench to prevent damage to
pressure line.
3) To install, reverse removal procedure. Tighten power
steering pressure switch to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
Check and fill power steering pump with Mopar Power Steering Fluid if
necessary. DO NOT use ATF in power steering pump.
