GENERAL INFORMATION
Throughout this group, references may be made to
a particular vehicle by letter or number designation.
A chart showing the breakdown of these designations
is included in the Introduction Section at the front of
this service manual.
EXHAUST SYSTEMS
The exhaust systems are produced in several con-
figurations, depending on engine and car line (Fig.
1). One system has an underfloor catalytic converter,
other systems require front mounted catalytic con-
verters. The Turbo III engine requires, a underfloor
converter/resonator assembly. Tail pipes, mufflers,
and resonators are sized and tuned to each vehicle/
powertrain combination (Fig. 2).
EXHAUST BALL JOINT COUPLING
A exhaust ball joint coupling (Fig. 3) is used to se-
cure the exhaust pipe to the engine manifold. This
living joint actually moves back and forth as the en- gine moves, preventing breakage that could occur
from the back-and-forth motion of a transverse
mounted engine. The exhaust ball joint consists of two bolts, two
springs, and a ball joint seal ring which is a separate
part from the exhaust pipe.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
There is no regularly scheduled maintenance on
any Chrysler catalytic converter. If damaged, the
converter must be replaced.
CAUTION: Due to exterior physical similarities of some
catalytic converters with pipe assemblies, extreme
care should be taken with replacement parts. There is
internal converter differences required in some parts
of the country (particularly California vehicles). The
2.2/2.5L engines equipped with a manual transmission will
have an adaptor for a air injection tube.

HEAT SHIELDS
Heat shields (Fig. 4) are needed to protect both the
car and the environment from the high temperatures
developed in the vicinity of the catalytic converters.
2.2/2.5L engines equipped with manual transmission where air is injected into the catalytic converter's, a
heat shield is welded on the lower bottom of the front
converter. Refer to Body and Sheet Metal, Group 23 for ser-
vice procedures.

FUEL PUMP MODULE
Refer to the Fuel Delivery section of this group.
METHANOL CONCENTRATION SENSOR
Refer to the Fuel Delivery section of this group.
FUEL RESERVOIR
The fuel reservoir is internal to the fuel pump as-
sembly (Fig. 6). The purpose is to provide fuel at the
fuel pump intake during all driving conditions, espe-
cially when low fuel levels are present.
FUEL TANK LEVEL SENSOR
DIAGNOSIS
This procedure test the resistance of the level sen-
sor itself. It does not test the level sensor circuit. Re-
fer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for circuit
identification and Group 8E, Instrument Panel and
Gauges for fuel gauge information. The level sensor is a variable resistor. Its resis-
tance changes with the amount of fuel in the tank.
The float arm attached to the sensor moves as the
fuel level changes. To test the level sensor, connect
an ohmmeter across the sensor signal and sensor
ground terminals of the fuel level sensor connector
(Fig. 7 or Fig. 8). Move the float lever to the full stop
and empty stop positions shown in the resistance
chart (Fig. 7 or Fig. 8). Record the resistance at each
point. Replace the level sensor if the resistance is not
within specifications. The low fuel warning light specifications determine
if the level sensor portion of the warning light circuit
functions properly. It does not test the complete
warning light circuit. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams for circuit
identification and Group 8E, Instrument Panel and
Gauges for fuel gauge information.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Safety goggles should be worn at all times
when working on any steering gear or pump. Throughout this group, references may be made to
a particular vehicle by letter or number designation.
A chart showing the breakdown of these designations
is included in the Introduction Section at the front of
this service manual. The power steering system consists of these four
major components. Power Steering Pump, Power
Steering Gear, Pressure Hose, and Return Line.
Turning of the steering wheel is converted into lin-
ear travel through the meshing of the helical pinion teeth with the rack teeth. Power assist steering is
provided by an open center, rotary type control valve.
It is used to direct oil from the power steering pump
to either side of the integral steering rack piston. Road feel is controlled by the diameter of a torsion
bar which initially steers the vehicle. As steering ef-
fort increases as in a turn, the torsion bar twists,
causing relative rotary motion between the rotary
valve body and valve spool. This movement directs
oil behind the integral rack piston, which in turn,
builds up hydraulic pressure and assists in the turn-
ing effort.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Hydraulic pressure for operation of the power
steering gear is provided by a belt driven power
steering pump. The power steering pump is a con-
stant flow rate and displacement, vane type pump.
Different styles of Saginaw power steering pumps are
used depending on the engine application of the ve-
hicle. On all four cylinder and 3.0-liter V-6 applications
the Saginaw Ham Can power steering pump is used
(Fig. 1). On the 3.3 & 3.8-liter V-6 and Turbo III applica-
tions, different versions of the Saginaw T/C style
power steering pump is used (Fig. 2). The 3.3 & 3.8 liter V-6 engine application uses the T/C style power
steering pump with a remote mounted reservoir for
the power steering fluid. On the Turbo III application
of the T/C style power steering pump, the power
steering fluid reservoir is integral to the power steer-
ing pump. On the integral reservoir type pump (Fig. 1) the
pump housing and internal components are combined
with the reservoir to form a one-piece mechanism. The Saginaw T/C style power steering pump (Fig.
2), consists of the power steering pump internal com-
ponents and pump housing. The Saginaw T/C style
power steering pump though has no internal reser-
voir for the power steering fluid. Depending on vehi-

When steering conditions exceed maximum pres-
sure requirements, such as when the wheels are
turned against the stops. The pressure built up in
the steering gear exerts pressure on the spring end of
the flow control valve. The high pressure lifts the re-
lief valve ball from its seat and allows oil to flow
through a trigger orifice located in the outlet fitting.
This reduces pressure on the spring end of the flow
control valve which then opens and allows the oil to
return to the intake side of the pump. This action
limits maximum pressure output of the pump to a
safe level. Under normal power steering pump operating con-
ditions, pressure requirements of the pump are below
maximum, causing the pressure relief valve to re-
main closed.
CHECKING POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
WARNING: FLUID LEVEL SHOULD BE CHECKED
WITH ENGINE OFF TO PREVENT INJURY FROM
MOVING PARTS. DO NOT USE AUTOMATIC TRANS-
MISSION FLUID IN THE POWER STEERING SYS-
TEM. DO NOT OVERFILL THE POWER STEERING
SYSTEM.
Wipe reservoir filler cap free of dirt, before check-
ing power steering fluid level. The dipstick should in- dicate FULL COLD when fluid is at normal ambient
temperature, approximately 21ÉC to 27ÉC (70ÉF to
80ÉF). In all pumps add fluid as necessary to obtain
proper level, using only MopartPower Steering
Fluid, or equivalent. DO NOT USE ANY TYPE
OF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID.
POWER STEERING PUMP PRESSURE TEST
The following procedure can be used to test the op-
eration of the power steering system on the vehicle. (1) Check power steering pump drive belt tension
and adjust as necessary. (2) Disconnect power steering fluid pressure hose,
at steering gear or power steering pump. Use a con-
tainer for dripping fluid. (3) Connect Pressure Gauge, Special Tool C-3309-E
(Fig. 1) to both hoses using adapter fittings. Connect
spare pressure hose to gear or pump. (4) Completely open valve on Special Tool
C-3309-E (Fig. 1). (5) Start engine and let idle.
(6) Check power steering fluid level, and add fluid
as necessary. (7) Gauge should read below 862 kPa (125 psi), if
above, inspect the hoses for restrictions and repair as
necessary. The initial pressure should be in the
range of 345-552 kPa (50-80 psi).
