well i have no clue, its a guestimate as to the exact gallons cuz when 20 bucks goes in the tank i get like 10 gallons usually, which puts the meter from E to 1/2 so i dunno... but yeah it seems like they breathed life back into my truck, its got better throttle response and is way smoother in acceleration, im not sure on the exact numberss cuz i dont have the money to fill the tank back up til it clicks then reset the trip and stuff so maybe when i get my cold air intake (more moneyyy...) then maybe ill the numbers, but as i explained these were mediocre calculations, and i was just happy to get my original champion Bulls**ts outta that engine, i might just be being optomistic because it costed 420$ to get those stupid champions out of there... did i mention they all snapped? all 8, trashed... i think my dirtbike maybe be next to get an e3 since my yz250f is really hard to start...

 

How many times have we been over gas tank capacities on this forum...?
They're either 26 or 35. Can't trust the gas gauge to figure out your tank size. It goes beyond the E and F marks. When the low fuel light comes on, there's like 12% or 3-5 gallons left.
Also, there is no way you got 22MPG.
The best I have gotten is 19MPG on a 5.2L with 100% highway at 65MPH.
I filled up today and calculated 14MPG with a mix of 60-70% hwy rest city. I'm a bit lead footed, though.

 

"But all 3/4 and 1 ton Rams had the 35 gallon tank. " - PurplDodge Actually, 3/4 rams can come with a 26 gallon tank. It depends on whether its a short or long wheelbase.

 

You paid $420 for a spark plug change ?

 

Oren is right. Scott, you can't divide up your tank that way, the stock gauge is not accurate enough. For example, I have the 26 gallon tank (quad cab 1500) and when my gas needle is at 1/8 of a tank, it should have 3.25 gallons or there-abouts, right?

Well, when I fill it up, it only takes 20 gallons or a little more. That means that I actually had about 6 gallons or a little under in the tank, not a little over 3.

There is only one way to get accurate fuel mileage.

Miles traveled (trip odometer) / gallons put into the tank (what the pump states) = average MPG

Oren is also right, I am sick and tired of having to post the different gas tank sizes available to our Rams. And I'm not the only one posting these either...

Ram 1500 short bed: 26 gallon tank
Ram 1500 long bed: 35 gallon tank
Ram 2500 short bed: 26 gallon tank standard, but 34 gallon tank was an option
Ram 2500 long bed: 35 gallon tank

With a little modification, you can supposedly even take a 34 gallon tank from a 2500 quad cab and make it fit in a short bed 1500.

 

You know, while you might not be able to trust the fuel gauge to tell you what size your tank is, I would assume it's fairly common sense. Would you or would you not really know what size tank you have when you are at the fuel pump? I mean honestly. Run a 26 gallon tank down to a 1/4 and then do the same for a 35. It's going to be a difference in the amount of fuel it's going to take to fill it up......

 

like i said, mediocre... i wasnt exactly sure but i thought i had an idea... and yeah Xray i did end up paying 420$ for the shop to take out my plugs because they were 122k old if theyre the originals... and they were rusted and so the ceramic part came out where as the threaded half of the plug without the lug on it stayed in my engine -.- long story short im just happy it runs and that it didnt cost more thhan that

 

ok i just ran the numbers for a 26 gallon tank and it said 18mpg so im still not 100% right on the money, for an exact number i think i may take a gallon milk container and fill it with gas, turn on the trip and go lmao

 

I can't feature not changing plugs for 122,000 miles.
When I started driving 10,000 miles was good between tune ups unless you had a hopped up motor.
In the days of the muscle cars to keep one at peak performance it was more like 3000 to 5000 miles.
On my 96 I did run a set of plugs almost 25,000. Thats the longest I've ever ran plugs and there was a difference when I changed them.

 

i changed to ngk iridium plugs seem too work pretty well but exspensive ,so they should hold up
