Question type: Maintenance & Repair

looking at a 2005 dodge stratus and the person who owns it says it needs a new oil intake
unit or the oil pan needs to be tightened. they state the oil leaks on the exhaust and
smokes under the hood. Is this a car we should pass by?

I'd look elsewhere if I were you. In case you still want to give it a try, get the car inspected by a certified shop. Each dollar you'll pay for inspection are worth it. You'll know how much it'll cost you to get it fixed.

2001 Stratus is has a fuel leak. 2.4L DOHC engine. The leak is coming from under a "hat looking device" attached to the top middle of the fuel rail. Is this a pressure relief valve. Is it replaceable or do I have to replace the entire fuel rail? I don't believe it's a test port or schrader valve. The Haynes manual says to connect an adapter between the fuel line and rail to check fuel pressure. This is a returnless fuel system. Does anyone have a factory service manual that talks about this "hat" on the fuel rail. Thanks for any info you can give. 1 Answer
