P2016 CHRYSLER Description

  The engine is equipped with an intake manifold flow control valve to promote maximum air/fuel atomization. The valve restricts air flow, causing it to tumble or swirl. The tumbling action helps ensure that the fuel and air mix thoroughly and burn faster. The intake manifold flow control valve and variable valve timing work together to improve fuel economy, idle stability, and emissions. The Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors the Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor/Switch. The ECM sets the OBDII code when the Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor/Switch is not to factory specifications.
