Point well taken and thanks. I took the front right side of the car apart last night in an effort to clean all the battery related points. What a deal! The nut and bolt on the positive clamp on the battery were rusted together solid. I wish I had known about how to correctly remove the air cleaner box. I removed the two bolts that hold down what becomes the anchor for the rubber grommet that secures the air box. I discovered that the battery was put in June of 2005 so I think I will go ahead and put a new one in and use stainless steel bolt and nut on the pos battery terminal.

You mean nobody told you they were snap together cars? It doesn't take much more then a few driver bits and about 4 socket sizes and you can take the whole car apart.

I did the cleaning of the battery posts and discovered that the battery was installed in '05 so while I had it out I replaced it just to be on the safe side. I had no idea that a batt would last that long. I just ordered a camshaft sensor from the local Chrysler and it will be here Friday.

The Mopar batteries seem to last a long time. I still have the original in my 03 Intrepid and my 99 wasn't changed until 2012.

I picked up the Cam sensor Saturday from local MOPAR/Chrysler and installed it Wednesday, 6-25, after dreading the job for several days. It went very smoothly and the car suns great. I cuda got a free sensor as a lifetime warranty on the one I purchased from O'Reilly Auto Parts a year or more ago but I took the advise of our wiser MOPARerans and went OEM with a 12 month warranty. If this one goes I will go back to aftermarket since they will be free. The crankshaft sensor is from NAPA from a year or so ago.
