    Help. Crank Sensors Keep Blowing. Getting REAL tired of changing them.

    I get from Rock auto because if I spend $90 on a Delco or Mopar and it blows I'll be pretty pissed. I have to know if there's an electrical problem causing this. I guess it could be the sensors though but trying to find out. they have 1yr warranty so I keep getting them for free. just hate...

    Help. Crank Sensors Keep Blowing. Getting REAL tired of changing them.

    the crank position sensor again. yes, blind job and cut fingers I can't wait. mine just blew AGAIN tonight thankfully as I was turning into the driveway. but not happy. it's a good thing I can do this with my eyes closed. tip for others: get a piece of plywood and put it across the front of...

    2000 5.2L Magnum stalling problem

    I'm having real problems (other post) with crank sensors. I've replaced 3 this year and I think it has to do with incorrect voltage overloading the sensor. if you figure it out (or I) let me know what the cause is. Try changing the crank position sensor again. yes, blind job and cit fingers...

    5.2l engine stalled out while driving

    no but maybe if the cam sensor goes the crank cps will follow but not the other way around. I don't know. I decided to replace the pcv valve and see what that does but it hasn't arrived yet. one odd thing happened is when I cleaned out the breather with brakleen and nudge torqued the...

    Is this PCV Valve or Purge? & Vacuum Line?

    5.2l engine stalled out while driving

    I can't believe it may be the crank position sensor again! what could be causing that sensor to go. what tools can you use to get to the 2 bolts on it? from underneath you can see it but not reach it. from top you can reach but cannot see it. I'd hate to buy a 90.00 or more sensor and have it...

    Can Hear Air Sucking Hiss when I Try to Start it

    just another thought could the breather element cause the sucking noise if it fails. going to try a new pcv valve.

    1996 OBD Code 22. I have analog odometer.

    5.2litre engine. I must have one of the last of the pre-obd-II ram 1500 2wds automatics. I have the 46re transmission. Related to another post I have, I keep getting a 22 code from the computer. I changed both temp senders on top of the engine block and ever since then I've got the code. I...

    Can Hear Air Sucking Hiss when I Try to Start it

    I decided to purchase a new map sensor. It just arrived today so I'm going to swap it out and see if that is going to improve anything on restarts. if it's not the map I don't know what is involved with removing the throttle body. are there any diagrams of it clear enough to make out what I...

    No Start After Changing Coolant Temp Sensor

    the engine starts almost normal and idles if cold. when it's hot/warm, I hear a hissing that goes away after minute or so while I am keeping the engine running with the gas pedal .

    No Start After Changing Coolant Temp Sensor

    its a brand new sensor for the ecm and the gauge.

    Gen Light comes on After Engine Running.

    I think it may be from extended cranking that it is taking to start it. see other threads.

    Can Hear Air Sucking Hiss when I Try to Start it

    thanks for all that. don't hear or see any leaks. clean IAC installed from another ram identical year. cleaned orifice where it resides. fuel pressure seems OK. squirts pretty good out of Schrader valve. doubt it's head gasket or plenum gasket since it d will idle fine after I get it...
