Hi guys, new to posts and ram 5.7 truck in General. But basically my issue is the multiple misfire code I am getting, and it does not show me which cylinder is actually misfiring. I had got the truck for a fair price due to misfire on cylinder #5 and did all the basic tests and ended up needing to change the camshaft and lifters, I did everything that I honestly feel was proper in the tear down/rebuild. I replaced camshaft, lifters, head gaskets, exhaust manifold gaskets, head bolts, upper cam phaser (VVT). Originally I didn’t get the timing correct and vehicle wouldn’t start, so I had to tear back down and redo the timing, after doing that I put the engine back together and started the truck, only to start horrible with a very rough Idle which ended up stalling out and not starting again. With codes p0300, p2008, p2017. And originally the only code was misfire on cylinder #5. I don’t know where I could have gone wrong! Or even, how could I diagnose where the issue is coming from? Whether it’s pushrods, vac leak or something else rather? Thanks to anyone who has some advice to offer!
