Did you check for carbon tracking on the plugs and wires/boots?

Is the problem constant? Engine hot/cold, weather related/high humidity?

A good condenser/capacitor will have an infinite resistance when it is fully charged. I’m thinking the value of one is pretty small and you cannot check it with a VOM.

The best thing to use would be an capacitor checker with an ESR function. However it’s probably easier and cheaper to just replace the capacitor.

Is the fuel pressure regulator vacuum operated?

Could you possibly be sucking fuel in through a bad regulator?

Is there any other patch where fuel could get into the engine besides the injectors?

Also, is the fuel pressure on the rail within spec?

This seems weird: 44 – Commanded Equivalence Ratio 0.999 –

Does this vehicle have an O2 sensor or an Air/Fuel sensor?

It would be nice to see a graph of this as it looks like the engine might be in stoic:
14 – Bank 1 – Sensor 1
Oxygen Sensor Output Voltage 0.225 V 0.23 0.71 0.88

P2270 refers to Bank 1, Sensor 2 so I guess it’s complaining about this:
15 – Bank 1 – Sensor 2
Oxygen Sensor Output Voltage 0.660 V 0.66 0.69 0.72

What actions have you taken?

Have you checked for a post cat exhaust leak that might be sucking in outside air/oxygen?

I sit corrected, you do get returned to the same/updated thread.

I don’t see a way to go back to the forum from there, using the browser back button takes you through your not yet submitted page. A wee bit confusing.

[gkellerman]

Yeah, site navigation could use some help.
It would be nice to be returned to the same thread that has been updated by your post.
These things take time and usually currency of the realm. I would have said money but no one really uses real money. THAT is a whole ‘nother topic and out of scope for this board.

Is this the same vehicle/question as this one?: Question regarding 5v reference circuits (in this instance, cam sensor circuit)

If so I wonder if there is a way to merge the threads.

If I remember correctly Eric O. of South Main Auto had an automobile that could have had two different types installed. He first had to determine which kind he had and then look at the signal to see if it was correct for that type. So if there are different types requiring different troubleshooting methodology it might be difficult to do a one size fits all video. Not trying to speak for Matt but it’s been ten days without a response so I thought I’d jump in with my five cents worth (Inflation dontca’ know).

So it magically stopped leaking refrigerant?!

[gkellerman]

Eric O. of South Main Auto has fixed several bad grounds on Mopars. It seems to be a common problem. Since you have multiple concurrent failures it is more likely to be something they have in common. If you can get ahold of a wiring diagram you might be able to trace the ground wires to see if they are all attached together. Keep us apprised of the situation.

I’ve been looking for a reasonably priced <$1000.00 bi-directional Scan Tool. There was a review of a Launch unit on one of the car pages (don’t remember which one).

I think it was of the X-431 variety. The X-431 Torque is $1149.00 at Amazon and the X-431 Pro Mini is $789.00. I think the Pro Mini was the one reviewed but I can’t be sure.

Oh, on one of the videos out there was a review of a MAC Tools scanner which according to the reviewer was a rebranded Launch unit.

If you have any further information or any kind of update please let me know.

Thanks
