Oil is good and I don’t have any smoke from exhaust. I’ve noticed at the bottom of the reservoir it looks like coolant seeps out a little right at...

    Hey, So not too long ago I bought a 2014 1500 with 200000 km, everything seemed fine besides a busted front diff. A couple weeks ago however the truck started struggling to warm up in the morning (should have been my first sign) but it wasn't until it completely stopped getting heat at idle at...

    Recently I've had an issue where coolant comes into contact with the hot exhaust manifold from an odd location. It's a spot between what I believe is the exhaust manifold and the engine itself. I'm not too sure what to call that spot but I included pictures with the exact spot circled. It isn't...

    with the heat on high, engine on, and revving several times, have to have the bleeder screw partially screwed on because if i don't the coolant spills out like a volcano. the bubbles did not stop even after an hour. do you have to do this multiple times?

    Hey guys. I’m needing a new radiator. My question is has anyone done a 5.7 or 2004-newer radiator swap on a 02-03. Ik most of the differences in the radiator and coolant reservoirs. But the only difference I see that wouldn't work out is on the 04-newer reservoir there is not a return line like...

    I’m having an issue in preparing for winter up here in Alberta. I’m getting heat on the passenger side but only Luke warm on the drivers side. When I change the switch to demist, the temperature feels about Luke warm on all 4 vents (not as different). Hoses to the core feel the same temp both...

    I've had the truck for just over four years and its about to reach 81k miles. About a week ago my coolant temp gauge began to rise and fall between the halfway and 3/4 marks on the gauge, while my actual coolant temp fluctuates anywhere between 220-250 degrees on a hot 98 degree TX summer day...

    Hey guys, After hours and hours of research I'm just about back where I started. I noticed my coolant was low not too long ago so I went into my owners manual and found that my 2013 Ram 1500 required OAT coolant. I ordered a jug off amazon to top off my truck and realized the jug of OAT and...

    I live in South Louisiana and my A/C is not working correctly! Help! I bought one of those canisters to check the pressure and recharge the coolant if necessary, but I'm pretty sure the connection is wrong. Either that or I have the wrong port. The port I'm trying to use is front and center...

    Hey everybody, I've got a question for ya! I've got a '98 1500 5.9 4x4. A few years back I did the plenum repair and replaced my thermostat with a 180 degree one. All good there, aside from a heater that always gurgled and was sub-par. After reading up, I'm sure it was air from me not burping it...

    I have a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi with 140,000 miles. It has never had a coolant flush. It recently began leaking around the thermostat housing. I replaced radiator hoses, heater hoses, thermostat housing and performed a coolant flush (Zerex g-05). I debated replacing the thermostat but...

    So I have a 2011 ram with a 5.7. My cooling system has been acting up in the last few days. I changed the thermostat about a month ago when I had these exact issues and all was good till now. Sometimes my coolant will run to hot, it'll get up to about 230 degrees, and I'll have to slow right...

    I'm pretty new at working with vehicles. I do my own oil changes, tune ups, etc. But I'm about to perform a compression test due to coolant being burned (white smoke and sweet smell on first start almost every morning) I need to disable the fuel system. I've searched and everything but i can't...

    I have experienced a consistent problem with overheating pulling approx 16,000 lbs uphill 6% grade for anything over two or three miles. To date have replaced Thermo, Rad Cap, Fan Clutch and of course a flush and fill of the cooling system. About to pull the trigger on a new Radiator and really...
