the springs that do not meet specifications.
VALVE INSTALLATION
(1) Coat valve stems with clean engine oil and insert
them in cylinder head. (2) Check valve tip to spring seat dimension A after
grinding the valve seats or faces. Grind valve tip to give
49.541 to 51.271 mm (1.950 to 2.018 inch.) over spring
seat when installed in the head (Fig. 17). Check valve
tip for scoring, if necessary, the tip chamfer should be
reground to prevent seal damage when the valve is
installed. (3) Install new cup seals on all valve stems and over
valve guides (Fig. 24). Install valve springs and valve
retainers.
(4) Compress valve springs with Valve Spring Com-
pressor Tool C-3422-B, with adapter 6412 install locks
and release tool. If valves and/or seats are re-
ground, measure the installed height of springs
dimension B, make sure measurements is taken
from top of spring seat to the bottom surface of
spring retainer. If height is greater than 1-19/32
inches, (40.6mm), install a 1/32 inch (.794mm)
spacer in head counterbore to bring spring
height back to normal 1-17/32 to 1-19/32 inch (39.1

The bearing caps are not interchangeable and should
be marked at removal to insure correct assembly. The bearing shells must be installed with the tangs
inserted into the machined grooves in the rods and
caps. Install cap with the tangs on the same side as the
rod. Limits of taper or out-of-round on any crankshaft
journals should be held to .025mm (.001 inch). Bear-
ings are available in .025mm (.001 inch), .051mm (.002
inch),.076mm (.003 inch), .254mm (.010 inch) and
.305mm (.012 inch) undersize. Install the bearings
in pairs. Do not use a new bearing half with an
old bearing half. Do not file the rods or bearing
caps. (1) Follow procedure specified in the Standard Ser-
vice Procedure Section for Measuring Main Bearing
Clearance and Connecting Rod Bearing Clearance
(Fig. 16). The rod bearing bolts should be examined be-
fore reuse. If the threads are necked down the
bolts should be replaced (Fig. 19). Necking can be checked by holding a scale or straight
edge against the threads. If all the threads do not
contact the scale the bolt should be replaced. (2) Before installing the nuts the threads should be
oiled with engine oil. (3) Install nuts on each bolt finger tight then alter-
nately torque each nut to assemble the cap properly. (4) Tighten the nuts to 54 N Im PLUS 1/4 turn (40 ft.

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.
