hope that it isn't the head gasket (white smoke from oil or water ending up in cylinders?)-check water for bubling, and oil spending perhaps, could maybe be faulty lambda probe(exhaust)/air mass probe(intake) or broken exhaust/intake gasket causing wrong mixture(more fuel) - the car can spend much more fuel as normal, can also be the spark timing too late maybe.high pitch mechanical clanking at higher rpm can be heard from the valves - perhaps timing belt?. if it is some kind of electrical fail you are lucky :)

as you step on the gas the rpms go up ,the oil pump rpms also go up ,the faster the oil pump turns ,the more oil pressure you will have.

Sorry but this has happened to me before, you might have a blown head gasket. that is where oil and or water are getting in to the piston cylinder and causing the white smoke cause the oil and water is being burnt or boiled.take it to a shop unless you have all the right tools and knowledge to do this job. i cost me like $1500 labor and parts.

P0442:

Small leak detected in evaporative purge system

if i had to guess I would say that your gas cap is not on tight enough or that is is bad. chrysler has had a lot of bad gas caps that cause EVAP service engine lights.

Check coolant, adjust drive belt, check radior core and radiator grill clean, remove and chweck thermostat, check cooling fan, check ignition timing, water ppump may be going out, improper grade engine oil.

Sounds like a bad battery, or bad/loose connection there. After the battery is replaced, or disconnected, it will need a little bit to relearn how to idle.

hi if your not losing any water then this must be the over flow pipe as it is the only pipe to the rad that doesn,t do anything is it a small bore of no more 10mm if so this is proberly what it is just keep your eye on the temp gauge if any problems get it checked yates210456
