Have you checked the leads or dispac. any cracks in leads or rubbers change. dispack you need to take this out and check for splits in the case. and water damage if any replace. also check the fuel line filter. and pressure valve on fuel line.

SOURCE: 96 dodge stratus timing belt

You may want to have a mechanic do this, not as easy as replacing an accessory belt. But if you decide to do it you will definitley need a timing light, 3 jaw gear puller, a harmonic balance puller and many other tools most people dont have in their garage

SOURCE: 96 Dodge stratus Oil leak

Hi my name is Allen!

The gasket you are referring too is behind the timing belt cover next to the engine, remove that cover and pop out the old seal behind the camshaft sprocket at the very top of the engine, lube it heavily and you can push it with your fingers, becareful not the bend it are it will still leak, you must get it all the way in or it will pop out again.

SOURCE: check engine lit on code po442,po445

I have a dodge stratus and the engine light is on and it drives and its as though someone stopped it with a grabbing sensation but its not the brakes they are not involved. i thought the pause and cut off was caused by the transmission but it not that either

SOURCE: 2005 dodge dakota 3.7l check engine light on/ code

Run standard misfire tests--pull plug, attach to wire, ground plug threads to engine and crank to observe spark. If spark is absent or weak, try a different plug/wire to narrow down to spark problem.
If spark is good, run compression test on bank to check for bad valve/gasket.
If compression is good, suspect injector.

Please see my tip at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r6715318-causes_gasoline_engine_misfires . These are generic instructions. If you get stuck or need specific instructions for your car, please get back to me with model, year and engine info.

SOURCE: I have a 2003 Dodge Stratus 2.4L DOHC Engine. The

actually there is a magnet. Its right behind the cam sensor. Had to replace it myself. just make sure you get the sensor from the dealer as well. You wont find the magnet anywhere but the dealer so you mine as well buy both at once.

I have a 1998 dodge stratus with a 2.4l doc . filled gas tank few days later have a miss in the engine ocasionally. put dry gas and fuel injector cleaner. no better . put new plug wires and spark plugs no...

With no engine light, there is not much of a problem. The engine check lights are generally very sensitive. I would try a tank of premium and see if that straightens it out.

On a 1998 dodge stratus 2.4 ltr engine misfire

check compression,with engine running remove h/t leads 1 at a time to diagnose weak cylinder,check that cylinder has the same amount of spark ( jumps the same gap as others )try changing the plug from crook cylinder to a good one and note if miss follows that spark plug or stays with same cylinder,can do same with injectors but only perform one procedure at a time so you can determine which one works.

Take it back to where you got your spark plugs installed and see if you have a bad plug or if it was installed wrong.

I have a 96 stratus the engine light is on.

Your most likely have an electrical problem behind the dash, but to be safe I would suggest going to a mechanic and have him/her scan the computer for any error codes, that will give you your definite answer. Once a code has been found, your fixing will have a direction.
