How do you test the fuel pressure on a chrysler 2.7l?
They didnt do it to cut cost. They did it to keep people like you out of the fuel system. If you go and buy a master fuel injection tester it will have the attachment. Or your local dealer probably charges no more than 80 dollars for a diag which is well worth it. These stalling problems are different on every car which makes it impossible to diagnose yours via internet. I have seen bad crank and can sensors, bad o2s, poor vattery connections, bad pcm connectors, heck one time I even had a bad left headlight groynd cause it so good luck.
Chrysler sebring ran out of fuel wont start?
Besides all the possible problems already mentioned here, the common one seems to be that you now have air in your fuel lines, and it needs to be purged out to get fuel to the injectors. I'm assuming your car has ported injection, as Sebrings haven't been made for long enough to have TBI I don't think. You need to find the Schraeder Valve (looks like a tire valve, and may have a cap on it, located on one of the fuel rails), and hold down the valve core with a screwdriver tip, while you have a friend turn the key to the "ON" position for a few seconds at a time. Wrap a small towel around the screwdriver shaft and the valve, to keep fuel from spraying all over. Try that a few times, or until fuel comes out. Once you get fuel coming out of there, it should start up, assuming all else is OK. If you don't get fuel out of there after a few tries, check to see if you can hear the pump running, and for a blown fuse and such.
Problem with Fuel Sensor on Sebring?
The fuel level sending unit needs to be replaced. Unfortunately, it's part of the fuel pump assembly, located in the fuel tank. It's possible to just replace the sending unit, but they aren't usually sold separately because it costs as much labor to disassemble the fuel pump assembly to just replace the sending unit as it would to buy an entire new pump assembly. Other than being a nuisance, a faulty sending unit can affect performance and fuel consumption. Most vehicles are programmed to run "rich" when fuel level is low to compensate for bubbles from fuel sloshing in the tank. Meaning, it uses more fuel than it would normally.
Will driving with a oil leak in the valve cover gasket hurt the engine? If so, how can this be prevented?
Is it an oil leak or an oil seep? Does oil run down the side of the engine leaving a clean trail as oil drips on the ground? Or does it just form a nasty, mucky oil-dirt combination that slowly builds?If it's actually a leak, get it fixed now. You can lose sufficient oil to starve the engine and cause premature wear or even failure. On top of that, you have an oil slick being left wherever you go, oil is probably dripping on the exhaust causing nasty fumes (not to mention a potential fire hazard) and you are having to spend money on oil that is just going to hit the ground. Not to mention it's not exactly good for those plants by your driveway to have oil washing into them.If it's a seep, don't ignore it. Get it fixed. If you have to wait a week or 2 for financial reasons, that's understandable, but don't push it out too far as it can develop into a leak. In addition, the dirt, cottonwood fluff, dandelion seeds, etc that can get stuck in the slime will do a few detrimental things. For one, it insulates your engine raising operating temperature a bit. Most cars engine oil relies on the side of the block and the oil pan to radiate heat away. Remember, oil functions as a lubricant, cleaner, and coolant! If the block and pan are caked over in grime, it is harder for the oil to transfer it's heat through the pan and into the air. This grime can also pose a serious fire hazard. Not fun.

Abs & trac light came on and staying on pt cruiser with 30,000 miles. what could be problem?
You have a stored fault in the ABS control module. Your ABS system, and your traction control, are now disabled. You need to go to the dealer or reputable repair facility and have the codes stored in the ABS controller checked. Then decide if you will have it repaired. Again people on here are answering questions they don't have the answers to. The manufacturer does not put the warning lights on the vehicle to make you come into the shop and get repairs. They are to warn you of a problem with that system. Your ABS right now will not work. With that lamp on it means it is deactivated. You must have the fault corrected before that lamp will go out.
What are some of the things that can happen if I keep driving my car with a broken tie rod?
Tie rods have an adjustment that keeps your tires in alignment. They also provide the link between your steering wheel and the front tires. You turn the wheel, the tire rod pushes the tires left and right.Worn tie rods can cause shaky front wheels, misaligned front tires, imprecise steering, excessively worn tires. A broken tie rod would allow one tire to flop to the side causing instant loss of steering and a crash if you are going fast enough.A least, you will be wearing out your tires much faster than you should. You will be replacing those tires sooner than later.At most, a worn tie rod could cause an accident because your steering isn’t accurate.If you are still driving your car, you don’t have a broken tie rod. You may have severely worn tie rods if your front tires are wearing unevenly (can be caused by a poor alignment as well), aligning the front end doesn’t fix your tire wear problem, or your steering wheel wobbles while you drive.They aren’t that expensive to replace and much less expensive than adding a new set of tires to that cost or an accident.
Can a bad car battery cause engine misfire?
So everyone on hear that says a weak battery cannot cause a misfire is wrong especially with a Subaru!!! I recently ran into this exact same problem with my 2013 Subaru Impreza 2.0L. My car began to have a rough idle anytime I was sitting at a stop light. Then the CEL came on for a misfire in the cylinder and the dealership wanted me to do $1000 worth of work replacing the coil packs and spark plugs. I specifically asked them if a weak battery would cause the problem and they said no as well. I knew my battery was weak because I couldn't leave my car radio on for 5 min with out the battery dying. All battery tests I did said the battery was fine. Today I finally got sick of having to worry about it not starting from leaving the door open or the radio on while it wasn't running. Sure enough my check engine light turned off and now my car has greatly improved performance! Also my car now idles like it is supposed to. I'm thinking my fuel pump was not getting enough power which caused the misfiring. Either way the problem is fixed and I suggest looking into the battery first!
