tires on my 1500

From : homebrewer

Q: your above post. even started using chevron gas. been fine for going on 4 months but it just came back. its cyl #7 again in spite of the injector swap. hmmm... okay we can pretty much rule out injectors as the problem - although the fact that it occurred again on #7 could be a fuel contamination problem - #7 is closest on the fuel rail to the inlet so any trash in the line usually ends up clogging the #7 injector. however id then expect you to have immediate misfires on #5 since that used to be the #7 injector and it would have been clogged/fouled previously... id now guess some cross-firing of the plug wires. its been a while so i forget what was discussed before. how old are the plug wires have they been re-routed per the tsb .

just got back from an oil change on my durango and noticed the dealer forgot to put the oil filter cover back. i had to go back and the technician unwillingly went to the garage and brought it out. i know its just a stupid plastic cover but the next week i am having both differentials serviced and my confidence is shot. how often do these experts forget to put the parts back how common is this do i need a six star dealer lac i dont have an answer but heres what i do. when having work done at the dealer i ask the service dood if i could meet the technician working on my truck. they never have said no. i usually say something like this is my baby do you understand what im saying and they usually say sure do mister ill treat her right. i rarely have a problem with the techs. and if i do they know and i know im gonna be naming names. and handing the tech a six-pack will assure that he will remember you for when you come in the next time. find a tech you like and request him every time you come in. denny yeah just avoid the ones with pink bunny suits and floppy ears! ;^ mike o so now i have to put mine up. .

he could also have an excess build-up of carbon around the valve and combustion chamber. maybe a dose of mopar combustion chamber cleaner would be in order before spending major bux. of course the crossfire tsb should be performed as well. yep - was thinking about that as well... just strange that it went away for several months. nevertheless that should be the next course of action - along with a change of plugs since the cc cleaner tends to trash plugs .
