hey yall i was out messing around with the truck just trying learn more about the dodge and vehicles in general. i took some pics of parts on my truck i didn't know about. in the pics i have the parts circled and some pics have multiple circles each a different color. i broke it down real easy just so i wouldnt get confused and maybe someone esle out there would find this helpful. thanks in advace.

intake connections 1


intake connections 2


i tried looking at a naked intake but i wasn't figuring out all these different ports, etc. also what is the long metal tube?

this looks like the starter underneath...but what is this comp bc i know where the PCM is. i have a pic of it on the deathflash thread


my other pics are posted on their respective threads...im just trying to learn, and i learn better by hands on and visualization

Not a bad way to learn, man. And these old trucks are pretty simple.. compared to the newer cars.
And props to Cheat for being so young and knowing it all. Very impressive.

Hey, everyone's gotta start somewhere. My bro turns 16 in July and wouldn't have had a clue about a single part in those pictures. Like I said, very impressive. Looks like we got ourselves a future master mechanic right here on the forum.

 

I have been on this forum for a long *** time. And it took me about 3 years to figure out what a TPS was.

Haynes and chilton's manuals help.
