Im having problem with my truck right after i start it up and take off it will stumble and stall until it is good and warm and then it runs just fine. what could be causing this problem ?
well that would make perfect sence since i installed a vaccum gauge and spliced into my PVC hose. But all the lines were tight so i dont know where or how it is leaking. could anyone give me some pointers on what to look for ?
THe pictures are hard to see because they are so small. Got any bigger ones? No, i'm not calling out your install job, just curious to see how a vacuum guage gets installed on our Rams.
My truck was having a problem similar to that, and it wound up being the intake plenum plate gasket. If you take the air cleaner off and look inside the throttle body, you'll be able to see the plenum plate. If there's no oil in there, great! If you see oil there, then the vacuum leak has been located.
my PCV had some oil covering the bottom of it, would that hint to something, but it has to be a leak cause it just has started since i hooked up my vaccum gauge
