Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Engine Troubleshooting gemmons1 User May 12, 2009, 4:49 PM Post #1 of 4 (1011 views) Engine compatability Sign In I have a 1996 Chrysler Sebring Convertible JXI with the 2.5l and has 180,000. The engine and transmission are both bad and need to be replaced. The junk yard reference says only a 1996 -1997 2.5l will replace it. However looking at the 1998-2000 it looks exactly the same. Why won't the 1998-2000 work, or is it just a minor adaption?

Some are on the flexplate, some on the camshaft. BTDT.

Any other possible conflicts? Loren Champlain Sr Veteran / Moderator May 12, 2009, 5:22 PM Post #4 of 4 (1003 views) Re: Engine compatability Sign In gemmons; Ya got me on that one. I would think that you could, but that's a big THINK. Probably should try to find an exact match rather than the possiblity of losing all of your hair if it doesn't work.
