    Chocolate Pudding? Thats some seriously thick looking stuff.

    Synthetic Oil

    Yeah, oddly the bill just says the replaced bolts, gasket, and one of the heat shields but nothing about the manifolds themselves which worries me a little that it will come back. Now my new task is to convince my Dad to start using better oil in his 2018 1500. He just brings it to oil change...

    Synthetic Oil

    Hey, what kind of magnets were you using? I was going to get some last year after the discussion on them but never did and frankly don't want to go through 1000 pages trying to find it. Also, @Burla you were right on the manifold leaks. Dealer said it was both sides and replaced them under my...

    How to Fluid Film your truck

    I might have to pull the front fender lines and get in there extra good this year if that is the case. I finished up doing both sides rear wheel wells, inside frame and inside rockers/doors. All else i need to get done is the rest which is the easy part. I agree on the paranoid for the inner...

    How to Fluid Film your truck

    I would agree. I did this earlier in the summer, though I just took a drill with a wire brush attachment so that sped it up. Then I hit it with rust reformer, enamel, and now will top it all off with some ff to keep it pretty

    How to Fluid Film your truck

    Guess I'll be spraying in half second intervals tomorrow then haha. At that rate I might finish by next winter.

    How to Fluid Film your truck

    I try setting it to 60psi but it only lasts a few seconds at that pressure before it dips down. I even heat up the FF to try and make it easier but that didn't help since it would cool off while waiting for the pressure to rebuild.

    How to Fluid Film your truck

    I did the driver side inside bits yesterday (under wheel well, rockers, doors, inside fram) plan on doing the other side tomorrow and the rest on the weekend. Question though, I only went through about 3 cans and a quarter gallon through the spray can last year, am I underspraying or...

    All hail burla, king of tick. Sorry, it was a longer video but I cut it down to try to make it fit then decided to just upload to YouTube instead. I guess I will call the dealer and see if my service contract covers it. What harm can it cause by leaving it? On an oil note, anyone have other...

    Synthetic Oil

    What do you think? Its not the greatest video but hopefully its enough. I'm kinda hoping its exhaust since I've either been running redline or QSUD + Lubeguard since I've had it.

    Synthetic Oil

    I wish I could wait that long on changes... 30 miles each way to work kills that dream. On a side note, still tick after a few days and a few hundred miles on QSUD + Lubeguard. Maybe I am crazy but i swear it is loader from passenger side. Gonna post a video tomorrow maybe so you tick experts...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Replaced both my back tires after finding a nail and screw in them while pulling the wheel well liners to get ready to fluid film... Will FF tomorrow hopefully.

    Synthetic Oil

    Small update. Running QSUD + Lubeguard biotech I am starting to get a slight startup tick the goes away after a minute or two at 9,100 mi into the change (96,000 mi total). I planned on changing the oil this weekend or next depending on when my Lubeguard gets in and when I feeling like running...

    Synthetic Oil

    TB is clean as a whistle. I also run a catch can which I would think would help that. I also changed the pcv valve at about 50,000 mi and am now at 95,000. I am thinking/hoping maybe it happened awhile ago from something and then just sat. Maybe when I change oil next (having luck with QSUD +...

    Synthetic Oil

    Hey all, been awhile since I've been in here. I was just changing my plugs and had some what looks like oil but a little sticky on the threads of the even number plugs on each side (closest to back of truck on each pair). Any ideas what might be going on? Truck was running just fine with no issues.

    Synthetic Oil

    I actually found some tests a guy did that are pretty interesting. http://www.dayattherange.com/?page_id=3667 He even used other non-firearm lubricants in the fame tests.

    Synthetic Oil

    Hey all, Was just thinking and had a question for any gun owners out there. There is always the age old argument between using or not using motor oil as a gun lubricant, and that made me think. We have all of these motor oils testing info, but I wonder if blackstone would test a container of...

    Synthetic Oil

    Been running it for 150 miles now after switching from RL 5W30 for experimentation and cost purposes. Nice and smooth so far except 1 thing. I noticed today my truck was revving up a little more at startup for maybe 5-10 seconds. Any insight on why? Never noticed it with RL.

    You beat me to it, I was going to be doing this as well on Saturday but never got around to it so I might change oil Monday after work.

    Hemi makes tapping noise at op temp & manifolds just done. vid inc to hear audio

    It you haven't already, head over to the synthetic oil thread. It is less the oil weight (though that is still a big part) and more the oil composition. A lot of us have had huge success with Redline 5w30. It is expensive but not as expensive as new cams and lifters. There's a lot of guys over...

    You are running the blue label Redline, correct? Sorry if you had already said that, I couldn't find it.
