whats the APPS on the ram2500 -Max
From : dave com com
Q: i have a 1994 dodge ram2500 4x4 w/5.9l cummins 5spd manual trans. im having power problems. the apps is an accelerator pedal position sensor and is used on electronically-controlled trucks 98.5 and up. older engines 12-valve head will have a similar sensor a tps or throttle position sensor but this is only for automatic-equipped trucks and is just there for torque converter locking/unlocking. fueling on the 12v engines is mechanically controlled from the throttle cable directly to a valve on the injection pump. .

friday went out and drove a 2005 ford f250 crewcab. very nice riding truck. might have to go monday and price it out. dodge has really disappointed me after 5 dodge trucks maybe time to switch. dale dale before you go to ford take a 05 ctd for a spin. roy .

well i went to the dealer loaded for bear. bunny rabbit would have been better. the dealers body shop said.... theres no sense in fixing them..... well just replace both doors next monday it goes in for a week. wow lost sleep over nothing! the drivers door is the worst..... it will leave crumbs in your hand. how many people look under their doors i will form now on. i think its from the water the front wheels kick up on the seem. after i get it back im going to rtv the seems and put on mud flaps to be safe. way to go dc! ken i was told by the dealer when my wife bought her liberty that rust through means rust though not surface rust. they do have a rust thru warranty and i would get it to the dealership and find out what is covered. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving hello i was washing my truck today and i noticed rust bubbles on the bottom of the drivers side door. looking closer at the door from the inside. i see were the skin and frame are crimper its loaded with rust. the passenger side door shows the same signs but not as bad. the truck is silver and you can see the rust stains really well. what is dcs rust warranty do i have any chance of them fixing this problem i have 8 year / 80000 mile coverage. but after looking real good at it. it doesnt cover body and paint......... figures tia ken .

snoman wrote the old dodge 360 had more torque below 300 rpm even though it had a lower peak hp rating and would do better than a hemi towing most of the time with the corect gearing but some people seem to go brain dead on the subject of gearing and towing not say that is the case here like it does not matter even if you show them the math. i assume you meant 3000rpm. what years are you referring to when you say old dodge 360 i have the numbers from dodges own brochures for my 2001 360 and my 2004 hemi. the 360 has lower torque below and above 3000rpms. the hemis torque curve is rather flat. all i can say is that the hemi is far stronger at pulling my trailer with identicle gearing 3.92. there is just no comparison. drive them both then report back your findings. .

on a 12v actually didnt check what truck he had. last i remember this topic it was in reference to a 00. -- max give a man a match and he is warm for a short while. light him on fire and he is warm for the rest of his life. in short its the throttle position sensor only it does a bit more on the cummins trucks. it lives under the black plastic cover just forward of the intake plenum heater. if you check the wires and all is well connected prepare for a $400 bill. on a 12v .
