    Odd electrical issue; 2006 ram

    Check all connections, including grounds. Clean if necessary, and add dielectric.

    Just cranks forever without starting...

    There are far better penetrating oils and lubricants. WD40 is almost the bottom of the line. They are only familiar to so many because of good advertising.

    smoke and loss power

    My first guess would be fouled injector(s) and/or one or more cylinders is not burning the fuel.

    5.7 hemi forged internals/engine tips

    Yeah, why reinvent the wheel? Blown crate motors are easy to get, proven, and will almost invariably cost less.

    2019 Laramie price

    My apologies. It's Saturday and been a long day. No sunroof. I was thinking of my ZL1.

    2019 Laramie price

    Well, my Laramie sticker was $48+k, and with discounts, $38k. It's rather simple math.

    2019 Laramie price

    I'd have to check to see if the are any other options. I don't know...maybe the discounts have dried up a bit. Last fall it was standard to offer 20-22% discounts off msrp.

    what do i need to do to add a fuse

    When connecting my plow there was no double space available in the fuse block, so I wired an inline directly to the battery. Just another wat to go about it.

    Anyone running e85? On ram?

    That doesn't make any sense. How does one go about getting all the fuel out of your tank before filling w/ E85? Virtually all E85 is mixed onsite...and is invariably 50-85% ethanol. You can absolutely mix 93 octane with E85 safely. Those are the legal requirements. The only guaranteed E85 I...

    Catch can

    Nowadays, it's a rare stock engine that can benefit from a cc. I didn't even consider installing one on my ZL1 until I hit over 750rwhp.

    No reserve.

    This. Also, the pump strains (potential damage) when it is low...so why even allow it to get that low?

    Identify year and spec. - They stole my motorcycle

    Definitely post '04 because of the ram's head on the tailgate...unless they added it. Why not just zoom in on the license plate and faces: problem solved. My guess is 2wd...it looks lower than mine. Arrest and prosecute.

    Anyone running e85? On ram?

    ??? Just so we're clear: Starving your engine of fuel will be catastrophic. I don't know about the Mustangs you speak of, but a properly designed system (In LS engines that can include pump (dual or triple) new lines including a return, ffs, injectors, and possibly rails, cam, headers etc...

    Anyone running e85? On ram?

    It's really just the opposite: Most fuel lines today can handle E85 all day long. The idc (injector duty cycle) will most likely be over its limit and there will be strain on the pump...possibly the fuel rails could be a bottleneck as well.

    Anyone running e85? On ram?

    Power. My Zl1 easily gains 50hp, up to 100 hp depending on tune and cam. Unlike others have stated, it does not ruin your engine if it's set up correctly, and the cost/benefit is a plus for power, it's a wash for economy: one generally burns 33% more corn over 93, but it's a wash if it costs...

    Air bags or Timbren Kit

    If you're hauling or driving long distances, I would avoid Timbrens and install what you need.

    Broken Manifold Bolts? [VIDEO]

    If just one bolt is loose, it is highly unlikely your manifold is warped...especially if it just occurred. I would install ss bolts. The key is proper sequence and torque tightening.

    Mystery Wire

    If the original owner cut into harnesses and left wires dangling, I would start there: clean it up by removing the stray wires and make sure there are no shorts where he spliced into the harness(es). If you continue to have a problem with after that, then check for excessive draw at each fuse.

    Mystery Wire

    Not an oem wire. The previous owner wired something...if the other end is missing, I would just disconnect it.
