    2017 ram 1500 5.7 HEMI in limp mode

    I have a 2017 Dodge RAM 1500 with the 5.7 hemi. It started misfiring and throwing codes for cylinder 3. I replaced the coil pack and nothing changed.

    NGK Ruthenium HX vs. NGK Laser Iridium

    Can't find any comparisons between these two plugs, apparently Ruthenium is better for burning a bit more efficiently and also supposedly lasts even longer than the 100,000 plus range. So of anyone has used Ruthenium and compare them to the Laser Iridiums it'd be highly helpful!

    I've had my truck for about 2 months now and it just hit 52,000mi.
