I have a 97 Intrepid Sport 3.5 and the number 5 cylinder doesnt fire. Code number 43 reads on the dash and the check engine light is always on. I just got the car a month or 2 ago so it is still under warrenty i was just wondering if it happened to anyone else or if its a common problem with a simple solution or am i lookin for new fuel injectors or new motor? By the way the spark plug does spark i've replaced the plugs, wires, and coil pack already.
Get a propane torch and let loose some propane (not lit) around the intake manifold to head gasket at the rear of the engine around #5 cyl. Do this with the engine at idle. If the idle changes then you have a shot intake gasket, very common on the 3.5L after 50K miles.
Would a shotty injector give - good resistance but poor voltage to - condition???? This is my current problem on my 97 treppy; cylinder #5.
