What Did You Do To Your 2ND GEN RAM Today?
Unsure. I ordered a leak down tester. It's weird according to my scan tool within 1 minute of it idling at about 600RPM it is saying it is misfiring about 1000 times. Hold the RPMs at 3K or drive it under WOT misfire is gone.
Now my 15 Durango has a stumble and no codes and can't figure that out. The joy of vehicles

Hard to compare internet opinions of stumble but the wifes 15 developed what Id call a stumble, ended up being the coil back, drivers side of course so with the intake all removed just went ahead and did all 3 on the drivers side and all 6 plugs. Thats the 3.6 ofcourse, 5.7 could be something totally different
My Durango has the 3.6. It is really hard to describe. It stumbles at idle for less then a second. Rpms drop but it recovers really quickly that if you aren't looking at the RPMs you wouldn't notice it. Did it under steady acceleration but not under WOT. Been chasing it for days on the Durango.
Fluids
So over the 4th I used a siphon to remove axle fluids replaced with Lucas synthetic then put royal purple in power steering. Changed brake fluid with Lucas I have owned this truck my 1st ram 3 years As a project its awesome but the peeling clear coat it sat til 6 weeks ago didn't drop any not one drop of fluid unlike my 1st harley so the power point and cig lighter and cruise didn't work my girlfriend was an electrician and yea so I bought a multi meter and u tube is my friend did all that and 6 or so bush lights on a Sunday also greased front end great fun truck
Had my buddy detail my truck (owns his own detail business) I drive my Harley everyday, (you can see it in the second pic) my truck has seen maybe 30 miles in past 6 weeks….
anyway I opened door the other day and she had been shut windows up baking in sun for 2 weeks without me touching it and the smell was like a punch to face. So I called him right up and said my trucks next on your schedule lol…
pictures don’t do justice, it literally looks brand new, not a single stain on carpets, and smells like she just came out the factory.
yes it’s a 3rd gen but I got the 5.9, 46re combo and I’m a 2nd gen OG

im not a body guy, but I can weld extremely well….finally got around to doing my bed arches today……it’s only primed obviously, have some more body work to rockers/ cab corners then I’m paint it like my Harley which I painted myself last year, black and blue, my bike came out excellent and only cost me $120 in supplies, because I did all the labor, so I’m thinking my truck will run in under $500 to paint as I’ll be doing all the labor myself
