3.3 engine differances? - 8/5/2006 11:18:29 PM    livinginh Posts: 446 Joined: 6/8/2005 From: Mid Missouri Status: offline I just aquired my brothers 1997 Dodge Intrepid, he locked it up on the way home from south Missouri the other day and I towed it to my house. Gave him $100 for it, now I may end up fixing it and driving it depending on if I can figure out what is wrong with it. It is stuck like locked up, but I havnt taken time to make sure of what is exactly wrong. I looked up getting a new motor for it just in case, but it says the 3.3 liter motor is differant from 1994 to 95, then the ones in the 96 and 97 models. Is this true, if so what is the differances? _____________________________ (\__/) (='.'=)This is one bad bunny!!!!! (")_(") Post #: 1
