I was sitting at a red light yesterday. When it turned green, it stated stuttering and didn't seem to have the same power. It seemed fine this morning on the way to work, but on the way home stated doing it again? Could it be bad spark plugs???

Any thoughts... There are no lights on in the dash to indicate a problem.

 

ok, so i have found the problem, after I checked all the spark plugs, and started the engine, I could here a loud hissing noise. Went for a little drive and found that I had no brake...Very stiff. Had to stand on it to stop! I found a green nipple on the brake booster sucking air like crazy! after a little research I learned this green nipple to be a brake booster check valve. Called the local parts stores, of course it a dealer item...Canada..Go figure! anyway I zip-tied a piece of 6mm plastic over the nipple to stop the air sucking but I'm wondering can I hurt anything driving it like that until that part comes in?

Comments welcome!

Should be fine for now.

 

Thanks Hydra! Sorry for posting it twice but I wasn't sure the original thread described what I needed. Appreciate your help!

 

No problem dude!

Everything doing ok with the rig while your waiting?

 

Things seem to working great! Gonna have to get to Calais ME so I can pick up some Autolite spark plugs and some Royal Purple Motor oil for my rig! Should I use any special brand or Mopar brand for differentials???

Which autolite plugs are you going with?

I don't like Autolite at all and stay with OEM CHampion Regular Copper plugs or Champion Truck Plugs. No platinums in the motors.

 

The Champion plugs are what's in it...I just read a few things that said the Autolite's were better!
