Thanks. I see it now.....

Isn't the timing belt on that a maintenance item at 60K miles? Stretched belt can give some strange running problems.....

Check compression??

WOW,that was helpful,thanks.


HeyYou, timing belt is about due and compression was on my list of things to check but i assumed that if it was the belt or compression that id have more problems than just at idle in gear. Idles smooth in park and drives smooth.

He's not the first one to ask question's about non Dodge products. Although when I do it, I usually put them in the general discussion section.
