Hi all, got a question about my '04 Stratus R/T. I am about to tackle changing my spark plugs and wires. I was wondering what kind of gaskets are used between the upper and lower manifold, and between the manifold and the EGR pipe. The newest manual I could find for the Stratus was 2002. The '04 3.0 V6 should pretty much be the same, right? The same manual suggests changing the cap and rotor too, but none of the parts stores has them available. Is there anyone who has done this maintainance? If so, do you have any useful tidbits for doing this job.

I also put some pictures of my car in the Member Gallery section so check it out. I hope to do as much customizing on it as I can.

 

welcome aboard...i am pretty sure that the gaskets are metal...there was a discussion about this a while back, and someone with a repair manual confirmed that they are metal...you should be able to do it without unplugging anything, so long as youre careful.
