Another Check Engine Light Question
From : kgharris
Q: check engine light has been on for about 2 months got it checked out when it first came on at autozone. they said the code reflected a small minor fuel system leak perhaps a faulty gas cap replaced and reset check engine light or a vacuum leak. well the engine check light is back on... any ideas on where to start thanks kevin evaporative emissions leak if it is the same code have someone perform a smoke test on the system to find the leak or the mechanical problem. the fault means you are venting fuel vapors to the atmosphere it has nothing to do with raw fuel .

i put a k&n air filter on it. that explains it the sound you are hearing is called the sandblast effect. it is caused by the tiny particals of dirt the k&n filter allows though bouncing their way through your system. hissing gets louder when the engine goes faster right yeah more air more dirt. something you will get used to. fmb .

my wife rarely drives the truck. i forget to unlock it so much i had to disable it. took me a few times to get it right. i wasnt switching it on and off fast enough. thanks to all who replied. this is a good group! ed on sat 12 feb 2005 180359 gmt edward l. dowdy eddowdy@ctsihatespamcomp.com wrote my doors lock automatically at a preset speed. this drives me nuts. mainly because i forget to unlock when i walk around to get in the rear door on the opposite side... is there a way to disable this feature ed you can but i chose to live with it since i like the feature my wife commutes in the ram i just got into the habit of hitting the unlock switch right after the closing the window before i get out.. ours is a qq with only 2 real doors but its a pita to walk out of the garage to put something in the truck and find out that the passenger door is locked.. mac please remove splinters before emailing .

-- the sticker price on the truck was about $35000 and i didnt want to put out alot of $$ out of my pocket but it ends up being like no interest for the next 39 months. yeah i know you dont pay sticker price... i actually didnt... cause i do have an interest rate but when you figure out what i am paying in total with the interest it ends up being just under sticker price.... just thought id put that out there before i get flamed for paying sticker price! -michele ; .

sounds to me like you dont need any help when purchasing a new ride. - thanks always nice to be well informed! i ended up leasing ive never leased before for 39 months. they wanted $452 a month. i got them down to $406 with no money out of my pocket just my truck and no more months added on with the same buyout at the end of the 39 months. its a little more than i wanted to spend at this moment thats why i leased cause the sticker price on the truck was about $35000 and i didnt want to put out alot of $$ out of my pocket but it ends up being like no interest for the next 39 months. i think i did well! helps that i listen to you guys all the time and know alot! the salesman was totally surprised when i asked to see the engine! then i asked where the distributor was because i was surprised not to see one and he had to stutter out of surprise that i asked the answer. then he went into some other engine features features for me like it not having a timing belt it has a timing chain horsepower torque and towing capacity. see that not just a pretty face! -michele ; .

looks like ill be taking a trip next weekend to new york to meyers rv superstores. they beat both texas big boys prices by 5000.00 bucks on the 5th wheeler i want. i can drive quite a ways to save 5k. sure hope i hooked up those light right. been reading this ng for over a year now. never contributed but will now. my mom and dad have purchased several campers/5th wheels from myers. they have been happy on each purchase. they originally purchased a 27 tow behind camper. updgraded to a 30 montata 5th wheel and now have a 35 montana 5th wheel and are enjoying it in florida now. they have a house here but mom finally retired in the early summer last year and now are living the dream. which myers did you buy from hamburg caladonia syracuse or bath -- regards slick willy glad to hear they had a good experience with meyers. none of the above its in churchville. montanas are nice mines built on the same frame and is 34 foot. it has most of the montana stuff on it except for a few items. -- moparman---remove clothes to reply! --scud coordinates 32.61204 north 96.92993 west-- .
