INSTALLATION
(1) Inspect bushings in clutch and brake pedals
(Fig. 33). Replace bushings if worn, cracked, or dis-
torted.(2) Lubricate pedal shaft, pedal shaft bore (Fig. 33)
and all bushings with MopartMulti Mileage, or high
temperature bearing grease.
(3) Position clutch pedal in support. Align pedal
with pivot shaft and slide shaft through pedal bush-
ings. Then repeat process for brake pedal.
(4) Slide pedal shaft through support and install
shaft retainer.
(5) Secure push rods to clutch and brake pedals.
(6) Install brake lamp switch in bracket.
(7) Install knee bolster.
LINKAGE
DESCRIPTION
The hydraulic linkage consists of a clutch master
cylinder, reservoir, a clutch slave cylinder and an
interconnecting fluid line 9 (Fig 34).
The clutch master cylinder push rod is connected
to the clutch pedal. The slave cylinder push rod is
connected to the clutch release fork. The master cyl-
inder is mounted on the driver side of the dash panel
adjacent to the brake master cylinder and booster
assembly.
The hydraulic linkage is serviced as an assembly only.
The individual components that form the linkage
assembly cannot be overhauled or serviced separately.

OPERATION - 5 VOLT SUPPLIES
Primary 5±volt supply:
²supplies the required 5 volt power source to the
Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor.
²supplies the required 5 volt power source to the
Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor.
²supplies a reference voltage for the Manifold
Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor.

OPERATION - IGNITION CIRCUIT SENSE
The ignition circuit sense input tells the PCM the
ignition switch has energized the ignition circuit.
Battery voltage is also supplied to the PCM
through the ignition switch when the ignition is in
the RUN or START position. This is referred to as
the9ignition sense9circuit and is used to9wake up9
the PCM. Voltage on the ignition input can be as low
as 6 volts and the PCM will still function. Voltage is
supplied to this circuit to power the PCM's 8-volt reg-
ulator and to allow the PCM to perform fuel, ignition
and emissions control functions.

SPARK PLUG
DESCRIPTION
The 3.9L V-6 and 5.2L/5.9L V-8 engines use resis-
tor type spark plugs. The 8.0L V-10 engine uses
inductive type spark plugs.
Spark plug resistance values range from 6,000 to
20,000 ohms (when checked with at least a 1000 volt
spark plug tester).Do not use an ohmmeter to
check the resistance values of the spark plugs.
Inaccurate readings will result.
OPERATION
To prevent possible pre-ignition and/or mechanical
engine damage, the correct type/heat range/number
spark plug must be used.
Always use the recommended torque when tighten-
ing spark plugs. Incorrect torque can distort the
spark plug and change plug gap. It can also pull the
plug threads and do possible damage to both the
spark plug and the cylinder head.
Remove the spark plugs and examine them for
burned electrodes and fouled, cracked or broken por-
celain insulators. Keep plugs arranged in the order
in which they were removed from the engine. A sin-gle plug displaying an abnormal condition indicates
that a problem exists in the corresponding cylinder.
Replace spark plugs at the intervals recommended in
Group O, Lubrication and Maintenance
Spark plugs that have low mileage may be cleaned
and reused if not otherwise defective, carbon or oil
fouled. Also refer to Spark Plug Conditions.
CAUTION: Never use a motorized wire wheel brush
to clean the spark plugs. Metallic deposits will
remain on the spark plug insulator and will cause
plug misfire.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - SPARK PLUG
CONDITIONS
NORMAL OPERATING
The few deposits present on the spark plug will
probably be light tan or slightly gray in color. This is
evident with most grades of commercial gasoline
(Fig. 29). There will not be evidence of electrode
burning. Gap growth will not average more than
approximately 0.025 mm (.001 in) per 3200 km (2000
miles) of operation. Spark plugs that have normal
wear can usually be cleaned, have the electrodes
filed, have the gap set and then be installed.
Some fuel refiners in several areas of the United
States have introduced a manganese additive (MMT)
for unleaded fuel. During combustion, fuel with MMT
causes the entire tip of the spark plug to be coated
with a rust colored deposit. This rust color can be
misdiagnosed as being caused by coolant in the com-
bustion chamber. Spark plug performance may be
affected by MMT deposits.

For air cleaner element required maintenance
schedules (listed in time or mileage intervals), refer
to 0, Lubrication and Maintenance.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove air cleaner ele-
ment (filter) from housing by removing top cover
only. To prevent damage to air cleaner housing, the
entire air cleaner housing assembly must be
removed from engine for air cleaner element
replacement.
(1) Remove air inlet tube (Fig. 4) at side of air
cleaner housing.(2) A band-type screw clamp secures the air
cleaner housing to throttle body. Loosen, but do not
remove, this screw clamp (Fig. 4). Note clamp posi-
tioning tabs on air cleaner housing.
(3) All Engines: Disconnect breather hose at rear
of air cleaner housing.
(4) 5.9L V-8 HDC Engine Only: Disconnect air
pump hose at air cleaner housing.
(5) The bottom/front of air cleaner housing is
equipped with a rubber grommet (Fig. 4). A mounting
stud is attached to intake manifold (Fig. 4) and is
used to position air cleaner housing into this grom-
met. Lift assembly from throttle body while slipping
assembly from mounting stud (Fig. 4).
(6) Check condition of gasket at throttle body and
replace as necessary.
(7) The housing cover is equipped with three (3)
spring clips (Fig. 4) and is hinged at rear with plastic
tabs. Unlatch clips from top of air cleaner housing
and tilt housing cover up and rearward for cover
removal.
(8) Remove air cleaner element from air cleaner
housing.
(9) Before installing new air cleaner element, clean
inside of air cleaner housing.
INSTALLATION - 3.9L/5.2L/5.9L
For air cleaner element required maintenance
schedules (listed in time or mileage intervals), refer
to Group 0, Lubrication and Maintenance.
(1) Position air cleaner cover to tabs on rear of air
cleaner housing. Latch three spring clips to seal
cover to housing.
(2) Position air cleaner housing assembly to throt-
tle body while guiding rubber grommet over mount-
ing stud. The lower part of screw clamp should be
below top lip of throttle body.
(3) Push down on air cleaner housing at rubber
grommet to seat housing at intake manifold.
(4) Tighten throttle body-to-air cleaner housing
clamp to 4 N´m (35 in. lbs.) torque.
(5) Install air inlet tube at air cleaner housing
inlet.
(6) Install breather hose.
(7) Install secondary air hose (if equipped).
