    5.7 Hemi rocker arm retainer/spacer block broken. Not sold separate from whole arm!!!

    Alright, here's the follow up! Apparently, that rocker arm goes way back in years and a ton of Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, etc models. I found several at the local pull a part and just popped valve covers and grabbed a couple of the whole bolt assemblies so I'd have some spares in case. They didn't...

    5.7 Hemi rocker arm retainer/spacer block broken. Not sold separate from whole arm!!!

    This is item 2 on illustration. Apparently, you can only get the bolt itself. You cannot get the retainer anywhere. That is ridiculous! Apparently you have to order a whole rocker for $200 to get the rest of the hardware, washers and all. Anyone have any idea where I might be able to find one...

    Anyone have, or know where to get torque specs and sequences for rocker arms and valve covers?

    No it was still supported enough to keep from falling in.

    Anyone have any recommendations on where to get the springs and all? Pretty sure I don't want to go too cheap with Amazon and Ebay on these!

    2017 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi died, trouble restarting and wont stay running

    So, I opened the passenger side valve cover, easiest and #8 was suspect anyways. Sure as crap, #8 valve spring broken! I bit of a relief to finally find something! Going to check it all out and make sure valve is good and I'm assuming I'll need to do a leakdown on that cylinder to be sure the...

    Going to start pulling valve covers to look for obvious signs and movement. Hoping I’ll get lucky and maybe have a clean break on a spring as I’ve seen online.

    No, not anything out of normal. Sounding more and more like it but not wanting to believe it!

    Battery and voltage all good. Fuel quality is suspected good as I’ve checked with other friends that used the base pumps same day as me and there have been no other issues. Still need to check vacuum lines. Will soon. Will update as I go.

    That’s my next plan of attack. Yes, I show some misfires on other cylinders, but nothing like on 8. Thinking the others may be a domino effect.

    2017 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi died, trouble restarting and wont stay running

    only has about 65,000 miles. I've owned it for last 30,000. Not rode hard, local driver by wife mostly and used for trips occasionally. Floored it a few times getting out of traffic, and let the Hemi sing, but very momentarily done the week prior to problems. Don't know if it matters, but could...
