    Considering a 3rd gen diesel soon, what do i need to know

    still runs a little rough

    Ram 1500 5.9 stalling

    crank position sensor, never hurts to check the plenum. for the gauges, it is probably grounds, take off the ground wires, clean them and clean the surface they are grounded to. i covered mine with dieelctric grease so that they wouldnt corrode again anytime soon.

    My 2001 Ram 1500 won't go into Park

    Mine does the same, if Im correct its a shift linkage bushing or something like that, however mine still goes sort of into park. not a ridiculous hard fix but inconvenient enough for me to keep putting it off.
