Light Oil in a HEMI??

From : mopartee

Q: howard.page@comcast.net wrote i have a 04 dodge 1500 hemi with the mpg/temp computer overhead. lately ive noticed that when i drive less than 5-6 miles the mpg reading is lowlike 4-5 mpg. it stays that way for a long time also. a few weeks ago i filled it up with gashit the reset button and looked up to find it was reading 19.5 mpgs going from high to lower altitudes. is there an easy way to check this out to speed it up abet or reset it other than the reset button. if i disconnect the neg battery terminal will that do it any time you want to know your mileage while driving just hit the reset .

lol i have to agree friend. time to killfile some more idiots . . . such a shame . . they might have a question i would have the answer to. -- budd if it wasnt important enough for you to take time to vote then its not important to me to listen to you whine about who won or lost. whatever puppet. budd im continually un-impressed with people like this user@domain.invalid coward who take the time to espouse very pointed often un-informed certainly un-educated opinions... yet dont have the nuts to step out from the veil of anonymity and put their name to their opinions. or as gary g used to put it... piss off troll .

removing the strip will only allow air to go under the hood. all vehicles are designed to take advantage of the high pressure since the induction fot the climate control is there. the argument might be made on some ground effect trimmed vehicles that too much air going under that edge would lift the vehicle. i doubt thats a problem on a ram. max life liberty and the pursuit of any jackass that threatens it. embellished usnavy slogan .

if you remove the rubber strip will it let more cool air into the engine compartment cool air into the engine compartment is air that didnt pass through the radiator and lost cooling to the engine. the seal around the radiator and rad support is important in hot weather! kend i dont think that is the seal were talking about. oops i saw the if you remove the rubber strip will it let more cool air into the engine compartment question and didnt read the previous thread insertions! rtft- kend .

the republicans will be hard-pressed to find anyone other than mccain. i saw mccain on leno last night and although he didnt come right and reject the idea of running again he did allude to the fact that he would be too old in 2008 ... i hope the republicans dont choose frist ... ill be forced to vote for hillary ... or mickey mouse if im not too lazy to write it in. craig c. .

i have a 1998 dodge grand caravan. all of a sudden when i start it four of the buttons on the dash area under the radio start blinking with their amber on lights. these are the two rear wiper buttons the recirculation button and the ac button. whats up the van was just being picked-up from the body shop but they claim they had not had to pull the battery or dash. p.s. everything seems to work. .
