TIMING BELT....;(
previous owner lied to me about 60k service i guess well this sucks...well i guess all i can hope for is by the grace of ma mopar herself i didnt bend the valves...

 

LOL!! Your madd stupid "your the father"

sounds like you jumped timing or have a cracked headgasket.

 

If you broke the timing belt then you bent valves - most likely a lot of valves

 

thnx for the vote of confidence disturbing.....lol....still praying here....but having a problem gettin the motor mount bracket bolts out...tried raising/lowering engine. these are the bolts going to the engine (2.0 DOHC btw)from the mounting bracket not the mount itself bolts are too long to come out there is a hole in the frame but cant swing engine enough to use it....(figured it may be for 2.5 or w/e)
and of course my manual like all manuals just says remove them like my hands are 2 inches around and i have flexible wrenches....lol
any hints tips or just something i may not be seeing....wouldnt be the first time....thnx again

 

I'll bet bent valves in 1 and 3 For SURE ...

 

Those bolt will come out - it just takes a fight sometimes -

remove the coolant overflow bottle and the bracket that holds it
then take the one strap loose from the metal lines that run along the frame rail
then take the motor up as high as you possibly can and you will get the one bolt out.

There is 1 or 2 of the bolts that i usually leave in the mount and take the mount and the bolts all out of the car at the same time.
Just be sure to put those bolts back into the mount while you are reassembling it.

 

ok i have a few days off for the holiday....i CANNOT seem to get the damn frickin crank pulley off...tried 3jaw puller broke the flat stock strap...tried 2 jaw puller broke part of the outside flange where belt rides in...have used torch/put tension on with puller and hit with a hammer..im lost and frustrated...again.
tried to find info in old posts...nothing for the 2.0...help[ please guys...

 

The key is that you need to put the crank pully bolt back in. It needs to be in the hole and threaded into the crank part way. Then using that puller you can press against the head of the bolt. This will alow you to pull the pully off until the bolt stops you. once you have started getting it to move you can thread the bolt out until it is only threaded into the crank 4-5 treads. Then use the puller again until the head of the bolt stops you from being able to go any farther. at this point the pully will be very close to comming off. Make sure that you always put the bolt in and tread it at least a couple turns of you will screw up the threads

If you can beg borrow or steal a Dodge harmonic balancer puller it works great or this one :
