1994 Chrysler LHS car cut off

Has the check engine light come on? Also, have you checked to see if you are getting spark and fuel to the engine when this happens?

This is a question for you, Moparman. I'm in the process of purchasing a 1994 Stealth. It's nothing fancy, the 3.0L SOHC. THe seller said he was driving it a short distance, heard a ticking sound comming from the lower end of the engine and then the car lost power. I never heard it run, but he says it sounds like it's running on two cylenders. If a rod or main went out, the engine would continue to run until it left go not cause a miss. The only thing I can think of is a head gasket allowed coolant to enter cylenders and perhaps bending a rod.

I've worked on Chryslers all my life, but I never played around too much with the Mitsubishi engines. Have you had any experience with them, if I swap out the intake and exhaust manifolds will any of the 3.0L from one of the Chryslers work or is there something different (which I doubt).

If you have any suggestions or input, I would appreciate it. It is ment to be a project car for me and my son to work on together, but I don't want to get burried in bills for "special" parts only for that car's engine.

THanks.

Just curious about sensors.
