    Would an o2 sensor really cause a misfire?

    This is almost too embarassing to post I pulled #8 again and it looked clean, but gassy. Had a hunch about the wires. Pulled the summit racing ones from my 454 motorhome and started with the #8 wire. Runs flawlessly. Drove it 250+ miles this weekend, I'm suspecting the front driver wheel...

    Would an o2 sensor really cause a misfire?

    I have considered getting the 8mm taylor cables, I want to look at the plug #8 again and see if its oiled up again. Didnt get a chance to tonight. I have also routed my existing wires per the TSB as well and just common sense keeping them apart from eachother. We stuck an inspection camera down...

    Would an o2 sensor really cause a misfire?

    Ive been at this darn ram trying to get it to run right almost a year now. I have a great idle and great acceleration. I however have a miss from 1300-1800 rpm. Short history, father in law said it was running bad, did tune up (cap rotor plugs coil wires) and did not help. We tossed some...

    1500, 2wd, steering shaft

    To wrap this up.... My shaft showed up yesterday from rock auto... 2 day shipping and 5% code was $72. (around town it is $140) The only difference I can spot is the dorman unit is thinner at the couplings, but adds a rag joint on the steering wheel side. To remove mine was a 13mm bolt...

    1500, 2wd, steering shaft

    I went ahead and ordered it from rock auto, well see how it compares. Dorman replied "The 425-264 is only for 4wd vehicles. We currently do not make a shaft for the 2wd models. Thank you for your inquiry. Jarrad Francis Dorman Products Asst Product Manager/ Technical" Sent from my...

    1500, 2wd, steering shaft

    Is there a difference between a 2wd and 4wd steering shaft? (the answer, still not sure- but I installed dorman 425-264 on a 2wd truck with standard suspension with no issues) The only replacement I can find is a dorman that specifically says 4wd only with a few 3500 rwd exceptions. Mine...

    Crank sensor, losing my mind

    Just removing the egr pipe to access crank sensor bolts. I dont have any ball end allen sockets so that may be a direction to go. I have 3/8 drive sockets with 1/4 allen and no amount of swivels will clear the egr pipe. If i knew the size of the nut i would buy the wrench for it but a whole...

    Leaking steel brake line

    I had a leak under the cab and many other questionable lines. I took the easy way out and went pre bent from sstubes. $200 did the whole truck, but they break it up into 3 or 4 sections depending on what you want to work on. Edit, didnt see second page you got er done. Lol
