94 Caravan Cherry Manafold
3.0 mamfold gets cherry red after running about 5 minutes. Head gaskets
were replaced but the heds were not rebuilt. What would cause the engine to shoot flames past the valves? |

The converter is not red and we took it off to see if it was blocked and
that"s when we noticed flames coing out of the manafold |

This is an EFI engine so something is telling the computer to greatly richen the mixture. Somewhere a sensor has gone wrong and the computer can't detect it. Ted |

If you are looking at this at nite after you just come off a drive under
load you will see it may be red. And if you take the manifold off while the engine is running you will also see flames coming out of the engine. Thats normal. Other then the that how does the vehicle run? Glenn Beasley Chrysler tech |
