Questions About 1984 Plymouth Reliant Engines

  • Why does my Reliant’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 Reliant firing up its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Plymouth engine sound different? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Plymouth Reliant. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. 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 a Plymouth engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Plymouth Reliant engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' 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 Plymouth Reliant radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your Reliant radiator in emergencies.
