Occasional overheating, if not related to low fluid or other problems, is usually caused by a sticking thermostat.
yes it can and it should be done every 30000 miles or 2 years
my 95 intrepid is doing the same thing check the "engine controller" fuse under the hood i do this but it blows out every so often still trying to figure that out
TORQUE CONVERTER IS A LIKELY CAUSE
We have always used Quaker State 10w30 and change it every 3,000 to 4,000 miles. We still have the car and get 22 to 24 MPH in the city.
Defininatly change every 3000 miles no longer.
You can check the air filter every 3-4 weeks. A dirty filter can cause your furnace to overheat. Learn how to clean your furnace, dirt is the number one cause for furnace malfunctioning.
There is a long list of P codes. Better to ask for a P code. All P codes are used for multiple cars. I know for a fact that every Chrysler dodge jeep Plymouth use p0300 for multiple cylinder missfire.
This can be a number of problems. There are so many things that can be wrong when a car doesnt start. Here are the most common on a Intrepid. 1. Dead Battery 2. Wiring is Shot 3. Ignition Switch 4. Relay Module is not putting out the right voltage 5. Bad Starter 6. Bad Spark Plugs I have a 1993 Dodge Intrepid and right now it's having the same problem. It starts every now and then but i was told it's the Ignition Switch. Give those 6 a look and report back.
you can remove the therostat as long as you do not need heat. the water runs through and keeps it cool. check the water every four days it will use more.
I have used 10W30 in every gasoline engine I've ever owned and never had a problem. Although in my climate it never gets below -10 F or above 110 F.
Replace the fuel filter every 36,000 miles. A clogged fuel filter can cause the fuel pump to overheat and fail. A costly repair.
I believe it's on Victory Road, not sure where but you'd want to check every level.
