Two day ago i got the engine lite on the dash board. I did check oil level , it was about 1/8 low. it has 78.000 miles,fill to right level and reset lite. now it came back again ,Any clue what is going on.? Dodge 2002, sport.
The 3.3 and 3.8 engine hold 4.5 quarts of oil (including the oil filter), and I'm not sure if by '1/8 low' you mean it was low by 1/8, which would be about 1/2 quart, or you only had 1/8 of the oil in the engine, and had to add approximately 4 quarts to bring it to the correct level. If you only added 1/2 qt or so, that is not a problem, if you had to add close too 4 qts, you may have engine problems due to a lack of lubrication. There would not have been enough oil to lubricate the internal engine components. It sounds as though the van is running ok, you didn't mention any noises or problems driving it, so regardless of how much oil you had to add, bring it to a parts store for a free scan of the vans computer to check for engine codes. The light will go on if any codes are in the computer. The parts store will attach a hand held scan tool to the diagnostic port under the dash to 'read' any stored codes. They can suggest what to do to correct the problems indicated by the code(s). Write them down and post them here w/ any questions you may have. Good luck.
The "check engine" light has NOTHING to do with oil or oil level. There is a problem with the fuel injection, transmission or emission system with your van. Youy will need a qualified repair shop check it out and recommend repairs.

My '02 Ford Taurus windows won't roll down anymore. Help! LEDs just blink on all 4 of them when l press the buttons. Driver's button makes a clicking noise that you can hear behind the dashboard but that's it. I changed the fuse but nothing happened, what else can I check?

My car will not start after i drive it until its warm. I can drive it for 2 hours straight with no problems, no sputtering or lack of fuel or anything. when i shut it off and attempt to start it after a heat soak, it will crank over, but will not fire. IT does have spark, but no fuel. the fuel pump will not engage when warm. I can bypass the fuel pump relay so it runs, but still can't get it to fire( i believe no injector pulse) but when it cools down after about 45 minutes, it will fire right up. Is this an ecu problem? or injectors physically get warm? has anyone ever heard of this before? is the chrysler 2.0 non turbo
