    Bad CV axle click click???? Help please!!!!

    I have an 03 Ram 1500. About a year ago I started hearing that sound a bad CV joint makes, click click, mostly when turning. I replaced right side about 8 months ago, still click click.

    Fuel Injectors

    I'm putting together a remanufactured engine, putting it in an 03 ram 1500 4x4 4.7. My existing fuel rail was severely rusty. Found an ram & a grand Cherokee in local boneyard & the Cherokee had the better rail, so I took that. I noticed one of my injectors was cracked, so I grabbed an injector...

    Oil pump slow to pump

    So I've got an 03 Quad-cab, 4.7, Ram 1500 with 225 000 on it. And I tell you, it runs & sounds like it did when I bought it with 37 000 on it. But lately, its taking quite a while for the oil pump to get the oil going, sometimes its long enough to trigger the check gauges light. It also starts...

    Truck will not start in cold weather!

    I have an 03 Ram, 1500, SLT, 4 X 4, 4.7 V8, quad cab. Starting this winter, when its very cold the truck just won't start, this has never happened before. If its around 10° to 15° I'm in trouble. I get in truck, turn key, & get a couple cranks, sometimes just 1 crank, very rarely several...
