    2011 Ram 3500 with Non-MDS 5.7 Hemi constant issues after cam/lifter job

    I'm so tired of this damn engine. I am in this predicament and cannot afford to have the engine replaced nor can I currently afford to replace it myself. I bought this truck from an auction for $5,500. 94k miles on it, brand new tires, 4x4 dually, solid flat bed, didn't have much rust on it. I'm...

    Lifters?

    Hi All, So I recently bought this 2017 Ram 1500, and I didn't notice it had a tick. Its only there when the engine is somewhat cold. I did find at least one broken manifold bolt on the passenger side, so it might only be the exhaust leak. However, I notice the exhaust leak on cold starts and...

    05 2500 No Start - Where to look

    Picked up a new to me 05 2500 5.7 for dirt cheap, lots of work ahead but overall solid. Picked this up last week from a guy who had someone attempt and steal it, messed up ignition then cut the cats, as far as I can tell that's the most of it. Now the sadness, I've been unable to get the starter...

    Hemi Tick?

    Hey y'all, I've been trying to track down a ticking noise that I've noticed since buying my '06 1500 (5.7 Hemi). It doesn't sound like the usual lifter or exhaust manifold tick based on what I’ve heard online. The noise only shows up when I accelerate past a certain point—not when I start the...

    Start up issue

    So my truck has been doing this thing at start up the past few weeks. If my truck has been sitting for any length of time(through the work day or overnight) when I go to fire it up, there’s delay or hiccup. It’s from the point my starter quits turning to the time my engine fires up. Nothing...

    Just wanted to share this, pulled the trigger and had my ECU tuned to delete the MDS from functioning. Super simple, mailed my PCM out and he mailed it back with no more MDS!!!

When i start it up and let it sit at idle it throws the rpm’s up and down a bit then misfires around 600 for a little bit then dies. If I keep its rpm’s above 1200 it runs with...
