Hi there. I have a 2001 ram 1500 5.2 and i just replaced my intake manifold gasket. I took the proper steps and re-connected all the sensors and injectors, cap wires etc. The timing is spot on. My problem is when i start it i have to keep my foot on the gas for it to run but i can smell in the exhaust that there is tons of unburnt fuel. Ive double checked everything, it gets spark and has compression. Would it be a bad or dirty injector? Any suggestions? I need it done tomorrow. Any help i can get would be great! Thanks.

I don't know the answer
Welcome to this RamforumZ

maybe something is sticking, have you thought about running some SEAFOAM through the fuel system ??

I was thinking that. A dirty injector would make sense. I'm going to try and diagnose it further. Thanks!

O2 sensor or weak spark or stuck injector. None of the plugs looked wet? Or are darker in color?

sorry to take so long to get back. i replaced an o ring on one of the injectors and put the fuel rail back in and it started right up! thanks for the help!
