Hello all,
I am getting a P219a (fuel/air ratio imbalance bank 1) on my '22 ram 5.7. It only trips the engine light on very long drives. Like hour 5 or 6. Truck is running perfectly fine, no shifting issues or whatnot. I took it in to my dealer, but the engine light went out from daily around town driving, and the dealer could not find any issues. Ran fuel injector tests, everything checked out. They had a TSB for a pin on the camshaft that could possibly be bent, but like others have described it is a teardown job just to inspect it and runs ~2-3k and that may not be the issue.
Does anyone have any insight on this code for a 5th gen? i've seen plenty of posts about the 4th gen and possible causes but not much regarding my generation. What are the chances that it could be something simple like a O2 sensor acting up only on long duration drives? Should i throw some seafoam at this problem, replace an O2 sensor just to rule that possibility out? I use regular 87 gas rather than 89. That wouldn't do it would it?
Reason i ask is if the dealer can't determine the issue cause of it only happening at very long drives, then perhaps i should try a thing or two. But i'd appreciate the thoughts of the forum community.
