Questions About 1989 Dodge D250 Engines

  • Why does my D250’s check engine light come on when I start it? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your D250 firing up its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Are Dodge D250 engine noises bad? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Dodge D250. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Dodge D250 engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I use water in my Dodge D250 radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your D250 when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • Why did my D250 engine suddenly stop? Reasons your D250 car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
