    5.7 cam & lifter install and now misfire runs like crap

    My misfire ended up being the exhaust rocker arm on the passenger side wasn’t tightened down enough. Tighted it down and it’s running like a champ

    5th gen 1500 REAR BUMPER CONVERSION

    What about the tag lights, were they plug and play? I know the new ones are led, my old ones weren’t.

    Buying a chrome 2021 rear bumper that is brand new from an individual this week for 250 dollars. Has cutouts for exhaust and sensors! Looking forward to using this write up to put it on my 2011 ram!

    Another spark plug thread (copper vs iridium)

    From everything I’ve read, yours come with the iridium plugs and it’s 100k interval. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Another spark plug thread (copper vs iridium)

    Do you have a programmer? Is that how you run without mds? Also, would I need to not run mds in order to run the iridium plugs? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Another spark plug thread (copper vs iridium)

    That’s awesome. Did you have to gap them at all? And didn’t change coils? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Another spark plug thread (copper vs iridium)

    I’ve been reading the same but I’ve seen where some people with 2011s have run the ngk iridium ix without changing the coils and they said they had no issues. Was hoping to see if others had experience with this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Another spark plug thread (copper vs iridium)

    So I have a 2011 5.7 hemi with 113k miles. I spent several hours last night researching spark plugs through the various threads out there. Didn’t really see anything recent about this so I thought I’d post this. I have been reading about the 2009-2013 trucks require the copper plugs because in...

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    No I used 7 qts. I always use 7 qts when I change it. No clue as to why it was low. I never got any check engine/low oil lights. I have a good friend that has a 2015 ram and he said that his is usually a qrt or so low every time he changes his as well and he doesn’t have any leaks either...

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    Guys! I am pleased to report that doing an oil change with 5w30 solved the issue. She is as quiet as a mouse this morning at startup! Definitely wasn’t exhaust leak. I did notice I was about 2 quarts low after changing. No visible leaks and doesn’t appear to be burning [emoji2369] Sent from my...

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    I’ve actually read of some others that mentioned what you are saying. Also about the oil filter drain back valve. I guess my first step would be to change the oil and filter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    I used copper gasket maker for flange to y pipe and on the felpro manifold gaskets as well to give a little extra assurance. That’s what has me baffled Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    I did check y pipe connection, doesn’t appear to be leaking. I added some copper sealant to it as well. Oil filter is Mobil 1. But I do have 9k miles on it. I was trying the annual protection deal with the oil filter and oil to try and get more miles between oil changes. Think I spent 70 dollars...

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    Just hope I’m not on the path to replacing a camshaft from stuck lifters! I know some people probably won’t care about the sound, but I’m the type of person that If something on my truck’s not right, I’ll worry about it till it gets right! It eats at me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    I checked manifold on other side. It had sat over night when I did this video this morning. Agree that it goes away quick. It won’t usually do it if it’s been warm and I crank it up. Only if it sits for like an hour or more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hemi Tick or exhaust manifold

    I will take a look at your other thread. It was the original manifolds. 6 Months ago I only had a leak on the passenger side and one bolt was broken. There was some warpage so I had a local machine show plane it down because I had read from others on this site that the bolts break because the...

    Headlight condensation after adding halos

    Well I’m reporting back and after all the resealing. I’m still getting so fogging towards the bottom! It seems to happen after I run the halos. I’m at a loss now! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Headlight condensation after adding halos

    Well I pulled both headlights back out tonight. I decided to try something else while checking the vent caps. I got my wife’s hair dryer and I mixed a bottle of soapy water. I left all the caps on except the side marker. Turned the hairdryer on and sprayed soapy water around the lenses where it...

    Headlight condensation after adding halos

    I’m thinking mine are sealed good, cause I’ve got two layers of sealant between the butyl and silicone. I’m betting mine has to do with venting. Hoping someone may chime in that has gone through this also Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
