Chrysler Repair: 2005 chrysler town and country 3.8L engine

Question
I need an engine for a 2005 chrysler town and country touring, and was wondering what other engines will interchange with that particular engine?

Answer
Hi Starr,
The 3.3L emgine is basically identical and so should interchange mechanically quite well.
The powertrain control module's injector timing amounts would likely by programmed differently to take account of the smaller displacement so that should be considered as part of such an interchange though all the wiring will work nonetheless. While the 2.4L was also available in '05 it was used with a different transmission so that would not be a good interchange.
