2002 CHRYSLER CARAVAN air filter

STANDARD PROCEDURE - HYDROSTATIC
LOCKED ENGINE
When an engine is suspected to be hydrostatically
locked, regardless of what caused the problem, the
following steps should be used.
CAUTION: DO NOT use starter motor to rotate the
engine, severe damage may occur.
(1) Inspect air cleaner, induction system and
intake manifold to insure system is dry and clear of
foreign material.
(2) Remove negative battery cable.
(3) Place a shop towel around the spark plugs
when removing them from the engine. This will catch
any fluid that may possibly be in the cylinder under
pressure.
(4) With all spark plugs removed, rotate engine
crankshaft using a breaker bar and socket.
(5) Identify the fluid in the cylinder(s) (i.e., cool-
ant, fuel, oil or other).
(6) Make sure all fluid has been removed from the
cylinders. Inspect engine for damage (i.e., connecting
rods, pistons, valves, etc.)
(7) Repair engine or components as necessary to
prevent this problem from re-occurring.
CAUTION: Squirt approximately one teaspoon of oil
into the cylinders, rotate engine to lubricate the cyl-
inder walls to prevent damage on restart.
(8) Install new spark plugs.
(9) Drain engine oil and remove oil filter.
(10) Install a new oil filter.
(11) Fill engine with specified amount of approved
oil.
(12) Connect negative battery cable.
(13) Start engine and check for any leaks.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - REPAIR OF
DAMAGED OR WORN THREADS
Damaged or worn threads (excluding spark plug
and camshaft bearing cap attaching threads) can be
repaired. Essentially, this repair consists of drilling
out worn or damaged threads, tapping the hole with
a special Heli-Coil Tap, (or equivalent) and installing
an insert into the tapped hole. This brings the hole
back to its original thread size.CAUTION: Be sure that the tapped holes maintain
the original center line.
Heli-Coil tools and inserts are readily available
from automotive parts jobbers.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ENGINE CORE AND
OIL GALLERY PLUGS
Using a blunt tool such as a drift and a hammer,
strike the bottom edge of the cup plug. With the cup
plug rotated, grasp firmly with pliers or other suit-
able tool and remove plug (Fig. 5).
CAUTION: Do not drive cup plug into the casting as
restricted cooling can result and cause serious
engine problems.
Thoroughly clean inside of cup plug hole in cylin-
der block or head. Be sure to remove old sealer.
Lightly coat inside of cup plug hole with Mopart
Stud and Bearing Mount. Make certain the new plug
is cleaned of all oil or grease. Using proper drive
plug, drive plug into hole so that the sharp edge of
the plug is at least 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) inside the
lead-in chamfer.
It is not necessary to wait for curing of the sealant.
The cooling system can be refilled and the vehicle
placed in service immediately.

LUBRICATION
DESCRIPTION
The lubrication system is a full flow filtration pres-
sure feed type. The oil pump is mounted in the tim-
ing chain cover and is driven by the crankshaft
OPERATION
Oil from the oil pan is pumped by a internal gear
type oil pump directly coupled to the crankshaft. The
pressure is regulated by a relief valve located in the
timing chain cover. The oil is pumped through an oil
filter and feeds a main oil gallery. This oil gallery
feeds oil under pressure to the main and rod bear-
ings, camshaft bearings. Passages in the cylinder
block feed oil to the hydraulic lifters and rocker shaft
brackets which feeds the rocker arm pivots (Fig.
100).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ENGINE OIL

TURBOCHARGER SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: The turbocharger is a performance part
and must not be tampered with. The wastegate
bracket is an integral part of the turbocharger. Tam-
pering with the wastegate components can reduce
durability by increasing cylinder pressure and ther-
mal loading due to incorrect inlet and exhaust man-
ifold pressure. Poor fuel economy and failure to
meet regulatory emissions laws may result. Increas-
ing the turbocharger boost WILL NOT increase
engine power.
The turbocharger is an exhaust-driven super-
charger which increases the pressure and density of
the air entering the engine. With the increase of air
entering the engine, more fuel can be injected into
the cylinders, which creates more power during com-
bustion.
The turbocharger assembly consists of four (4)
major component systems (Fig. 1) (Fig. 2):
²Turbine section
²Compressor section
²Bearing housing
²Wastegate
OPERATION
Exhaust gas pressure and energy drive the tur-
bine, which in turn drives a centrifugal compressor
that compresses the inlet air, and forces the air into
the engine through the charge air cooler and plumb-
ing. Since heat is a by-product of this compression,
the air must pass through a charge air cooler to cool
the incoming air and maintain power and efficiency.
Increasing air flow to the engine provides:
²Improved engine performance
²Lower exhaust smoke density
²Improved operating economy
²Altitude compensation
²Noise reduction.
The turbocharger also uses a wastegate (Fig. 3),
which regulates intake manifold air pressure and
prevents over boosting at high engine speeds. When
the wastegate valve is closed, all of the exhaust gases
flow through the turbine wheel. As the intake mani-
fold pressure increases, the wastegate actuator opens
the valve, diverting some of the exhaust gases away
from the turbine wheel. This limits turbine shaft
speed and air output from the impeller.
The turbocharger is lubricated by engine oil that is
pressurized, cooled, and filtered. The oil is delivered
to the turbocharger by a supply line that is tapped
into the oil filter head. The oil travels into the bear-
ing housing, where it lubricates the shaft and bear-
ings (Fig. 4). A return pipe at the bottom of the

(3) Lower vehicle.
(4) Install the negative battery cable.
THROTTLE BODY
DESCRIPTION
The throttle body is located on the intake manifold
(Fig. 26) or (Fig. 27). Fuel does not enter the intake
manifold through the throttle body. Fuel is sprayed
into the manifold by the fuel injectors.
OPERATION
Filtered air from the air cleaner enters the intake
manifold through the throttle body. The throttle body
contains an air control passage controlled by an Idle
Air Control (IAC) motor. The air control passage is
used to supply air for idle conditions. A throttle valve
(plate) is used to supply air for above idle conditions.
Certain sensors are attached to the throttle body.
The accelerator pedal cable, speed control cable and
transmission control cable (when equipped) are con-
nected to the throttle body linkage arm.
A (factory adjusted) set screw is used to mechani-
cally limit the position of the throttle body throttle
plate.Never attempt to adjust the engine idle
speed using this screw.All idle speed functions are
controlled by the PCM.

WARNING - HIGH FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
WARNING:: THE INJECTION PUMP SUPPLIES HIGH-
PRESSURE FUEL TO EACH INDIVIDUAL INJECTOR
THROUGH HIGH-PRESSURE LINES. FUEL UNDERTHIS AMOUNT OF PRESSURE CAN PENETRATE
SKIN AND CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY. WEAR
SAFETY GOGGLES AND ADEQUATE PROTECTIVE
CLOTHING. AVOID CONTACT WITH FUEL SPRAY
WHEN BLEEDING HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LINES.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AIR IN FUEL
SYSTEM
Air will enter the fuel system whenever fuel supply
lines, separator filters, injection pump, high-pressure
lines or injectors are removed or disconnected. Air
trapped in the fuel system can result in hard start-
ing, a rough running engine, engine misfire, low
power, excessive smoke and fuel knock. After service
is performed, air must be bled from the system
before starting the engine.
Inspect the fuel system from the fuel tank to the
injectors for loose connections. Leaking fuel is an
indicator of loose connections or defective seals. Air
can also enter the fuel system between the fuel tank
and the transfer pump. Inspect the fuel tank and fuel
lines for damage that might allow air into the sys-
tem.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FUEL SUPPLY
RESTRICTIONS
LOW-PRESSURE LINES
Fuel supply line restrictions or a defective fuel
transfer pump can cause starting problems and pre-
vent engine from accelerating. The starting problems
include; low power and/or white fog like exhaust.
