I ended up replacing the throttle body (at the recommendation of a dodge service tech) and the back is just as clean as the front to my amazement. I really appreciate the input though guys and if this fixes it i will update!
I know they recommend atf 4+. The guy who had my pickup before me cost me a rack and pinion, power steering pump and new lines.... So i would NOT recommend leaving it in. I believe the reasoning behind this is viscosity, at lower temps the atf wont get thick like the power steering fluid...
It is the original intake, the engine is actually completely stock... the vent tube is still connected from the oil filler neck to the resonater (hemi hat). Also the oil looks good, i only have 1000 miles on the oil change and it looks like i just put it in..
