    Fuel Pump troubleshooting P016F

    You should also replace the fuel filter again when you replace the in tank lift pump. The fuel filter should be replaced every 30k miles according to Ram but most ecodiesel owners do theirs every 20k miles. I do mine every 15k miles just to be safe and make sure I don’t have any issues.

    Time to buy a tuner and I’m torn.

    GDE will typically get 1-2 mpg better than Sofa King Tune.

    How much Money you spent on truck

    $31,187 for the truck brand new in 2006. $21,350 in mods and I am not even close to being finished with the truck. I have probably 100+ hours in labor that I have done all myself and that is not included in the mods price. At this point, I will probably be buried in my truck because I don't ever...

    06 dodge 1500 trans auto

    Sounds like you are low on fluid. Remember to check the level with your truck in neutral after it has fully warmed up. If the fluid level is ok then you may have dislodged/torn main filter seal. Be careful revving the engine to get it to engage, you can burn up clutches very quickly like that...

    New to Forum and need help with my Engine

    I'm leaning towards a wrist pin or rod bearing. Sounds like you have enough knowledge to know the difference between a knock and an exhaust leak. Never heard a blown head gasket make any engine noise. I have heard a bad wrist pin and bad rod bearing noise go almost completely away when the...

    Help with identification of a Ram

    I would say the easiest way is to count your lug nuts on one of your wheels. 1500=5 lug nuts 2500=8 lug nuts.

    ignition coil pack conversion

    I know it is possible to do the conversion because I have seen it. I know the plug is not the same so that will need to be changed. Do a little more searching and I am sure you will find a how-to. I think the reason you don't see it more is due to the cost. After you factor in the cost of 8 new...

    Suspect exhaust manifold leak - Procedure?

    Just to give you a heads up... there are coolant ports not far from the end of the exhaust bolts. If you drill just a little too far then you will hit the port and then you must replace the head. So if you ever see coolant come out of the manifold bolt hole then you know what you have to do.

    diagnosis

    Yes, camber can cause a pull if the camber difference between both sides equals 1 degree or more. Usually the pull will favor the side with lowest camber.

    AC blowing cold out of passenger side only?

    You are smelling Freon. Your evaporator that is inside the HVAC box is leaking. The reason it feels slick is because a small amount of A/C pag oil is mixing with the water that is draining out of the box. The entire HVAC box needs to be removed and separated to replace the evaporator. You should...

    4th gen seat swap

    Looks great HemiSport07! This has been on my mod list for a while. The newer seats are way more comfortable to me. I plan on keeping my truck for a long time so I will wait until the perfect set comes along for me to grab up. Where did you source your set?
