It's part of the fuel module located in tank. Should be accessible under rear seat. If your not having problems, it shouldn't be necessary to replace.

I have a Chrysler 300c. It bogged down one day. Took it to autozone and they said it had a misfire. So while I had the $$$ I did a complete tune up. Plugs, plug wires, and new coils. It didn't make a change at all. Drove it to oriellys they had a better computer and said 5 out of 8 was still misfiring. So now I'm stuck scratching my head trying to figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

If the engine isn't turning over then it is not the fuel filter. If the engine is turning over when you turn the key it is possible it's the fuel filter but most likely the Fuel pump unless you got some poor fuel or water in your fuel. This is a fuel injected engine. Look at the engine and find one of the fuel injector rails. On one end there should be a black dust cover cap. Remove that cap and you will see what looks like a Tire air valve. Put a rag under and around this to keep fuel from spraying out all over and press on the center release valve after you have turned the ignition key to on but not started the engine. If fuel comes out try the other rail. If you have fuel at both then the engine is getting fuel and the problem is most likely NOT the fuel filter but may still be related to your fuel pump. Chrysler uses submerged fuel pumps in these vehicles. That is the fuel pump is located in the gas tank. If you suspect the Fuel pump is faulty, and this does happen, you should really have a trained mechanic do the work. They have the tools to do the job quickly and without getting fuel all over. If the fuel pump, which is electronic, does not maintain proper fuel pressure it will cause the symptoms you have described.

SOURCE: 2005 Chrysler 300 thermostat location?

Hi,

In your Model :-

The automotive thermostat is a temperature controlled on and off valve. When the temperature rises to a predetermined temperature, the thermostat opens up to allow the engine coolant to flow through the cylinder block and the radiator. This flow is crucial to maintain optimum operating temperature for fuel efficiency, enhanced driveability, and engine protection. The coolant flow is reduced when the engine is cold, and the flow is increased when the engine is hot. Contrary to popular opinion, operating the vehicle without the thermostat doesn't make the engine run cooler. It will actually run hotter because there isn't a thermostat to slow the coolant flow. This means the coolant doesn't stay in the radiator long enough to dissipate its heat.

TO TEST THERMOSTAT

There are several ways to test the opening temperature of a thermostat.
One method does not require that the thermostat be removed from the engine.

  • Remove the radiator pressure cap from a cool radiator and insert a thermometer into the coolant.
  • Start the engine and let it warm up. Watch the thermometer and the surface of the coolant.
  • When the coolant begins to flow, this indicates the thermostat has started to open.
  • The reading on the thermometer indicates the opening temperature of the thermostat.
  • If the engine is cold and coolant circulates, this indicates the thermostat is stuck open and must be replaced.
The other way to test a thermostat is to remove it.
  • Suspend the thermostat completely submerged in a small container of water so it does not touch the bottom.
  • Place a thermometer in the water so it does not touch the container and only measures water temperature.
  • Heat the water.
  • When the thermostat valve barely begins to open, read the thermometer. This is the opening temperature of this particular thermostat.
  • If the valve stays open after the thermostat is removed from the water, the thermostat is defective and must be replaced.
  • Several types of commercial testers are available. When using such a tester, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Markings on the thermostat normally indicate which end should face toward the radiator. Regardless of the markings, the sensored end must always be installed toward the engine.
  • When replacing the thermostat, also replace the gasket that seals the thermostat in place and is positioned between the water outlet casting and the engine block.

Positioning a thermostat into an engine.
  • Generally, these gaskets are made of a composition fiber material and are die-cut to match the thermostat opening and mounting bolt configuration of the water outlet.
  • Thermostat gaskets generally come with or without an adhesive backing. The adhesive backing of gaskets holds the thermostat securely centered in the mounting flange, leaving both hands of the technician free to align and bolt the thermostat securely in place.

TO REPLACE THERMOSTAT

CAUTION
If the radiator is filled to the top with coolant and the engine is run without the radiator cap in place, the coolant will expand and spill over as the engine warms up.
  • Drain some coolant into a clean container until the coolant level is below the thermostat housing.
  • Remove the upper radiator hose connection from the thermostat housing.
  • Loosen the housing bolts and remove the housing.
  • Remove the gasket and scrape it carefully from the surface of the housing and the mounting surface on the engine. If the gasket remains on either of the surfaces, there will probably bea coolant leak after reassembly. Some engines use a rubber O-ring to seal a thermostat housing.
  • Compare the size of the thermostat to the old one. They are of different sizes, types, and temperature ratings.
  • The temperature rating is stamped on the sensing bulb on the bottom of the thermostat. The temperature bulb faces the block.
  • When replacing a thermostat, be sure that the thermostat fits into the groove in the block or outlet housing. If the thermostat is installed upside down, the engine will overheat.
  • Install the gasket.
  • Reinstall the thermostat housing. Refill the system and run the engine or pressure test to check for leaks.
  • When the engine has reached operating temperature make sure the thermostat opens.
  • You should be able to see coolant circulating within the radiator.
  • Another way of checking thermostat operation is to feel the top of the radiator hose or use a thermometer or multimeter with a temperature probe to confirm that the coolant is warming up.
  • If the engine is overheating, but the top hose is still cool to the touch, the thermostat is stuck closed and must be replaced.
NOTE When a paper gasket is used and the recess is in the thermostat housing, it is a good practice to position the thermostat into the recess and glue the gasket to hold it in place. If it falls out of its groove during installation, the outlet housing can be cracked or a coolant leak will result. Before tightening the water outlet housing, try to rock it back and forth to be sure it is flush. Housings are often cracked during this step.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

SOURCE: changing fuel filter on 2004 chrysler town and country

  1. Remove or disconnect the following:
    • Negative battery cable
  2. Raise the vehicle and support the fuel tank with a transmission jack.
    • Fuel line from the front of the tank
    • Ground strap
    • Inboard side of the fuel tank straps and front T strap fastener and lower the tank about 6 inches
    • Fuel lines from the fuel pump module
    • Fuel filter
  3. Installation is the reverse of removal. Tighten the fuel filter bolts to 40 inch lbs. (4.5 Nm), the main tank straps to 40 ft. lbs. (54 Nm) and the T strap to 250 inch lbs. (28 Nm).
  4. Start the engine and check for leaks.

2005 touring 300. Definitely a gas issue. Misses really bad . Advance auto states no fuel filter. When I pull by vin. One pops up

I believe you will find that Chrysler, in their infinite wisdome, found it acceptable to put the fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, and the level sending unit into one module that is located inside of the fuel tank.

How to remove the fuel tank and replace fuel filter on a 2005 Chrysler 300

Are you having a problem with a plugged filter or just doing a service?

Many vehicles no longer have an external servicable fuel filter any more. They are meant to just be left alone. It does not make sense to me because external fuel filters could get plugged. Where is that substance that plugged the external filters going if there is no filter.

Of course you can purchase the part. But that is for the time when the fuel pump needs replaced.

Describe the location of the replaceable fuel filter on a 2005 chrysler 300 with a v 8

Hello richardcr341: My name is Roger and I will answer your request. As you have noticed there is no filter that you can see. The reason is the filter is located inside of the fuel cell or tank. What you call a filter is now called a strainer. The strainer is sold as part of the fuel pump unit. Should you need further help please just ask. Please rate the answer. This way I know it was helpful. Thank You for using Fix Ya. Roger

Fuel filter Chrysler 300 crd ?

The question was for a 300 CRD (assuming the "D" is meaning diesel). In which case this is located directly on top of the engine, under the plastic cover right in the middle.

It's a standard service item to be replaced at ever service. Provided you have enough patience to get the 2 pipe clips back on securely the whole job takes about 20 minutes to do.
