    Oil building on crank case vent hose

    Oil building on crank case vent hose

    I think this may help resolve the issue I am having on my 3.6L Ram 1500. I bought a hose and pcv valve from Mopar America, I heed to find the part number for the clean air makeup hose. My library as an on-line Chilton's manual and showed something similar. Thanks crazykidd1994!

    Transmission fluid and rear differential fluid change

    Torque Spec and Sequence - I just purchased a used 2016 Ram 1500 that was leaking from the pan. The pan looks new, so it appears that someone changed out the fluid and filter and did not torque correctly. From Chilton's, you torque to 10 Nm or 89 in-lbs, and torque in a diagonal sequence.
