Hi guys,I'm a newbie here,I live in Italy and due to a bad LPG conversion my 1996 Ram Indy Pacecar burnt!! It has just 12000 original miles since new....
The fire didn't touch the engine internal parts....but ALL the engine bay its gone....wiring harnesses,ECU,belts,radiators and so on.....what guys you suggest to do with it?
I'm a bit depressed....I love my truck.

I just wondering what parts I will need and where can I find all the diagrams and parts as well.....

Thanks a lot,Joe

 

hello and welcome to dodgeforum. i'm sure there are guys here that can help you. in my opinion, i do believe since the fire was in the engine compartment, you will have to replace pretty much everything electrical. ecu, all wires(wiring harness),your belts, if your radiator is bad, might as well. use your best judgment to see what needs to be replaced. if it looks crappy, its probably going to need to be replaced. sorry to hear that your truck burnt up. thats a sad story. hope you get it going again!

 

Thanks a lot wjxavier....I hope to fix it ASAP I have good mechanical skills but I realy need help to understand what I will need and where (in US) to find all I need....
P.S. BTW.....My cousin live in Fredericksburg....I have a big family in VA....

 

lol its a small world i guess! you're pretty much just gonna have to search around the websites, some good ones are JEGS or summitracing. there are others out there that i'm sure someone can give you. hope everything works out for you!

 

Jegs or Summit for wiring harnesses?? maybe you refer to LPG conversion....

 

who did the conversion? If its the reason it burnt it should be their responsibility.




Well unless you did it

 

You are right but here in Italy the responsability rules are a bit different.....Now I just need some suggestion to find all I need to rewire the engine bay....almost all is melted....also the fuse box.....
What guys you suggest?

 

Look around on here and the other dodge forums for people parting out trucks, summit, (i might get flamed for this) Advance auto, rock auto (never used them but others talk them up a good bit), idk if painless would have a harness or not

 

Thanks....the real problem for me now are the Engine wiring harness....do you know any company that can make it?

 

I was looking through eBay last night and did a search using Dodge RAM and there was a ton of stuff from a parted out truck listed including wiring harness and PCM.
