Questions; How do I tell if this is a 3.8 or smaler engine?
And I read on here about using a paperclip to find the Codes, however, this has a plug with two rows of 6, but only one harness with 4 wires in it connects to back of this plug, one green,pupple, black & a white one. going from letf to right, top to bottom,... the black is #6, green #9, pupple #10, & white is on #12 of the plug. Does this mean that I can't use the paperclup to check codes on this vehicle?
This vehicle had a eradict miss, not all the time, just most of the time,.. I have checked some of the things I seen on here. But not of it help so far. I don't have a presure guage to check fuel pump, but noticed that if I turn key on, and open gas line, that only a first bursh of fuel comes out, not sure if there is a saftly relay to shut off pump. also if I just press the fuel presure check valve by enjectors, that only a little first bursh of fuel comes out of it too. Other main problem, is that after driving a while, about 2 out of every 10 times you go to start it, it will not crank,.. not click or anything,... after about 15 to 30 min. later it will crank.
