Engine Performance problem
2000 Dodge Caravan 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 140000 miles
This message is to Dave H.
In reference to the codes on the computer I got an answer from the readout of the code from an auto zone store before I took the car to my mechanic
The code said
Fuel trim bank one condition
Explanation
The powertrain control module uses the oxygen sensor to calculate the Air/Fuel ratio of the engine. The coputer has recognized a rich or lean condition on one engine bank only.
Probale cause
If bank one and two codes set together suspect fuel pressure or MAF ( mass air flow) sensor
Oxygen sensor defective
ignition misfire- repair
Fuel injector problem
What should I do?
