gordy got a reaction from QinteQ in How Much Antifreeze Do I Need
Captain relates to Captain Chrysler who must be someone else. Dote.com relates to chryslerforum.com as other one to this and chryslerforum.co.uk as this one. Remember getting belt at School for getting things like this wrong. Got a School picture if you want to see it.

Errrr no. Sounds like there's been bad communication to the injectors. Replacing injectors if they really need changed maybe the easy part. Finding the reason to the injectors permanently firing maybe the hardest part.

As above, same experience pretty much.
Also if it helps, my thread for roughly the same issue - http://www.chryslerforum.co.uk/topic/1067-hard-acceleration-causing-eml-to-come-on/ -
gordy got a reaction from ryden in Hi Guys I Have A Problem.
A very recent fault this one on here and we seem to have narrowed it down to the Turbo Actuator. What's happening is the actuator operates the waste gate on the turbo and whether the actuator diaphragm is goosed or the hose to it from boost side of turbo is blocked with carbon, the Waste Gate is not operating. So hence we have over boost on booting it, ECU operates the management light, power is reduced and code P0235/7 is recorded. P0069 is probably over boost pressure. Sounds too good to be true but hope it works for you. If not record your answer on here. I have same problem at moment but working on it is a problem. Mine started shutting down quite recently but a new boost/temp sensor sorted that out. The problem is getting an Actuator as their normally sold with a turbo.

I have had P0235 for ages now. Yes Boost pressure related.

You don't need to shut down engine and restart to clear the fault and light. When limp mod comes on just lift foot off accelerator slightly and it will keep going, full power returns in about 30 seconds. It's a b#gger when you want to accelerate past another car, but it can be done, just don't boot it so hard.

gordy reacted to Caspian in Alternator Voltage
This is what I use to check voltage:
When engine is not running, it shows current battery voltage. (useful to check how worn is battery)
When engine is running, it shows the current voltage, the alternator is charging the battery.
I fitted this on the far left side of the windscreen, so one look and I can see.

hi the code you have is fuel system too lean cylinder bank 1 had same problem on my 53 reg v6
i changed lambda senser you have 2 on yours upstream and downstream the one at top of cat on manifold is upstream bank1 lower one that goes into cat bank 2
once i changed senser (got mine from chrysler dealer £122 )still had same problem after lots of diagnosis it turned out i had intermittant fault on one of wires
mine was negative wire that comes out senser auto electrican ran buy pass from negative wire on senser to body work cured problem
my symptoms were you drive along go to accerate then lose power for about 5 secs then fine fault was intermittant would not happen all the time
your senser is pretty easy to replace open your bonnet look behind intake manifold and ontop of exhaust manifold you will see senser
it has electrcial wire that can be fiddly to get to but if you get hold of senser end of wire (it has like a coil spring like wire around base)
follow that to connecter slide red clip backwards and pull connecter apart
hopes this helps it increased my mpg by 6 mpg urban and 8 mpg on run

A case of renewing fluid and changing filter first before getting big hammer out.
