Feels like my dodge ram lost some "power". What to do?
I had a previous thread mentioning all of the work done on my car. An induction cleaning, throttle body cleaning, transmission flush/exchange and an oil change. Those were the biggies. Upon getting the car back there was an issue that was not happening before I had the work done. Well that seems to have been worked out and it seems to have been the result of a loose transmission filter and barely any transmission fluid in the car. Well since this is all over, it feels like my car has lost some "power" if that makes any sense. It doesn't quite have the same umph when I step on the gas as it did. What can I do to get this "power" back? before all of this, I could step on the gas suddenly and the car would take off instantly, now, its like it "vrooms" on up to speed not as "powerful" as it was. I can't think of any other word to use that "power" but thats the best I've got. What can I do to get the power back!!??
Check the air filter to see if it's clogged, how long has it been since your plugs were changed? You could also run some gumout regane, techron, or seafoam through the fuel system.
