    Trouble starting when warm

    Thank you for the additional follow up guys! I'm going to try to have a look at things this weekend and see if I can figure it out. Haven't had the chance yet. Crappy thing is I think I have another problem to add on top of this one now. On the way home from work last night, I noticed whenever I...

    Trouble starting when warm

    Thanks for the replies so far fellas! Truck has around 140k on it. I'm leaning towards some sort of starter issue but honestly, I have no idea. Everything else still operates and seems fine when it does this as in, nothing else's acts like the battery is weak. I was also wondering about grounds...

    2001 Ram 1500 4x4 5.9 automatic. Issue has just recently and randomly started coming up although it is happening with more frequency now.

    Torque converter gone?

    Yes, just had the chance to check it out. Great link and info, thank you! Once piece of info I just remembered and forgot to include in the OP is that a few times shift through the gears with the column shifter, it was pretty stiff going and once or twice when going between selecting 2x4 or...

    Torque converter gone?

    I guess I should clarify this. "I" didn't hear it. I have partial hearing loss in both ears and certain piches of sounds I don't hear well or at all. Combine that with driving through 6" of snow and the exhaust of my truck being a little noisy dumping out of a 40 series under my bed and I very...

    Pics of your 2nd gen ?

    My 2001 5.9 4x4. Currently getting her back in shape after sitting for the past few years. After going through the maintenance I plan to hopefully throw on some fresh paint and have her looking good again along with possibly some new wheels.

    Excellent fellas! Thanks for the info. Sounds about like how I figured I could do things but, also figured I'd better make sure since I haven't had to deal with vacuum and emissions crap in the past.

    CELL code help

    Where can I order replacement vacuum lines to replace these at? Or can I just go to the local hardware store and just pick up something similar in size? I had forgotten that I noticed one of these lines was dry rotted and cracked earlier on when starting to work on the truck and when I looked...

    Hellbent?

    Looking to pick up a leveling kit for my 2001 1500 4x4. Reading here I see the general consensus to be that Hellbent steel is the best for this. My question is, I see they have a 2" and a 2.5" leveling kit for my truck. Which do I need to make my truck actually sit level? I don't want the front...

    1998 dodge ram flooding and stalling

    I've had a similar problem with the coming to a stop thing and needing to hold some maintenance throttle to keep it running. From research I've started doing, a lot of people are point towards the IAC (Idle Air control) which over time gums up and doesn't work properly. Some have said you can...
