Chrysler Repair: 1998 Plymouth Breeze 2.4 head gasket leak, head gasket leak, gasket kit


Question
Roland, I read a response for a plymouth 2.4 liter head gasket leak you gave and I have the same issue on my 1998 Breeze.  My leak has progressed into the cooling system resulting in oil in the overflow tank although no water has made it into the oil. I have purchased a new gasket kit and bolts but can't find a manual for the torques I will need for this project.  Do you have those and how can I get them?  Thank you

Billy


Answer
Hi Billy,
There is a listing of the torques and the procedures in the Haynes manual for the Cirrus, Stratus, and Breeze for the years 1995-2000, #25015, which is a good source. And if you follow eBay you might find a Chrysler shop manual in that same time frame. I bought a '96 Cirrus/Stratus shop manual that covers the engine. It is a single page list which I would be glad to xerox and snail mail to you gratis. A third source is a public library nearby which might have an auto repair manual collection. Let me know if you want me to postal mail the page to you.
