    Oil Filter Thread

    For the guys who think deactivating the mds via a tune is a good idea

    or me I’m the exact opppsite I have 700 idle hours, <15% of total, and I had to replace the cam. everything I’ve seen in my mildly educated opinion has pointed to metallurgy not lubrication.

    MDS deleted now slight misfire

    spark plug / coil pack would be my first check. Try moving the cyl 8 coil pack to another cylinder see if miss follows. If not, then try replacing plugs (unless they're new), which of course could then be counterfit plug issue.

    Shorty Headers Owners - Temp Question

    Uncoated AFR shorties in Phoenix AZ here… no noticeable difference. I don’t even break 190° idling in 110° ambient. Honestly I don’t even break 200° unless towing or putting my foot in it. I’m sure my under hood temps are higher but again it’s a truck not a road race car. I may wrap / coat...

    What are your thoughts on long term wear characteristics for another metal part in the engine? (billet yokes)

    Horn Honks 3 times after lock need help

    How old is your key fob? The metal contact on the inside of the rubbery button separated on mine causing similar issue. It’s very easy to take the fob apart small screw under the door key part then gently pry apart. If that is the case you can buy a new fob on Amazon and swap the electronic...

    TSP (Texas speed performance) longtube stainless headers, has anyone run them, performance, fit, finish. Im considering these

    The analogy was more about discounting a source of information because one has a prejudice on the media or title or the unknown. So much ignorance in the world is due to people’s close minded thinking. One can decide for themselves after being receptive of said information through their own...

    OR perhaps what you did would be akin to only reading the cover of a book because you never heard of the author. SMH

    TSP (Texas speed performance) longtube stainless headers, has anyone run them, performance, fit, finish. Im considering these

    Not sure if you clicked on the comments but there’s dimensions of primaries and close up view of inside the collector.

    Funny enough I was just looking at this today… ARH vs Texas Speed LT Headers Here’s a link from High Performance Rams FB page comparing them.

    2009 Ram 1500 5.7 MDS - weird #5 misfire problem

    Yeah won’t be that due to it being a non MDs cylinder anyway. You can test moving the injector to a new cylinder and see if the misfire follows.

    2009 Ram 1500 5.7 MDS - weird #5 misfire problem

    Since it’s an 09 what oil are you using? The earlier rams could get MDS issues with wrong viscosity. Doubtful but something to check Edit - actually cyl 5 is a non MDS cylinder.

    Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0w40

    FYI youcan do this and you can always adjust the shipment timing after your first order to coincide with when you actually need it next. Still gets the discount!

    For the guys who think deactivating the mds via a tune is a good idea

    I did see that and still believe it has to do with the cam… and the plastic yokes. If I swap out my MDS lifters, I’ll definitely be getting billet yokes.

    For the guys who think deactivating the mds via a tune is a good idea

    I'd agree with this. Part of my hypothesis is that I don't believe it to be a MDS correlated issue at all. From examining my personal cam and lifters, as well as doing a great deal of academic / engineering researching on topics such as Hertzian stress, axial load (makes sense why my pin was...
