Greetings, Dodge Truck group.  Here's a strange problem for you:
2001 Dodge RAM 1500 390 4wd
I failed the state emissions inspection because the MIL light doesn't
come on during the startup check.

I just put in new Bilstein shocks and had recently put on 2 new
tires.  The tires I had in the front for the last 20k miles (yeah, I
know I should have rotated them but my rear tires were so low on
thread that I figured it may be safer to leave them on the back) are

Looks like I'm going to have to adjust or add a new filter
for the group.  What the hell is with all the spam all of a sudden?

I've found a 2000 Ram 3500 4X4 with the CTD, dual rear wheels, automatic, Laramie SLT Package, good
tires, and 53,000 miles.  The guy's asking $14,500, which is about $2,000 over Blue Book.  I'd
appreciate any input as to whether this is a fair price and any information about ...

I switched to ATT from Earthlink and now my favorite newsgroup is full of
spam!!!  Please don't tell me I screwed up royal!!

Check engine light on but runs fine..
Shows code with key on, off etc.. couldn't find 442, but I'm definitely NOT a
mechanic..lol

I have an 87 w150 4x4. Im getting a wierd noise from the front end,
seems to be in the wheel areas. Its hard to explain but I'll give it a
try...sounds almost like a grinding/clunking type of sound. I notice it
mainly at lower speeds when going over a bumpy road or turning, mainly

My 2003 Dakota 3.9 with 38,000 miles Check Engine Light came on
yesterday. The code is BBEVAP (could be 88EVAP?) evaporative emission
system small leak/no flow condition. Probable cause 1) defective or
loose fuel cap 2) EVAP canister or hose cracked-not connected 3) Purge

I have a 97 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4. When I turn a corner I hear a sound
that sounds like horse hoofs on concrete. The faster the turn the
faster the sound. Is this ball joints? Steering knuckle? U-Joints?
Anyone ever hear of this before?

Yours truly will be on RLTV Wednesday at 9:00 p.m..  The show is called Whole
Body Health - Bee Sting.  It was filmed two summers ago.

Just wondering what y'all think of all the talk about Texas seceding.
As a native Texan and fan of Texas history ... it's exciting to see
significant history potentially begin to unfold.

im sitting at a stop light and my attitude starts chirping with low fuel
pressure alert.  before i could shut the truck down the warning went away
and i showed 11 psi.  ok, a freak thing i thought.  i got to the next light
and the same thing happened.  before i could get a half ...

my '01.5 cummins powered 2500 has chirps of some sort under the dash at low
speeds (15 mph or so).  it almost sounds like its the drivers side shock
bushing or something but id swear its closer.  my silver '01.5 did the same
thing.  my green '00 did the same thing.  the blue '02 ...

Looking for opinions. TIA

My transmission has suddenly began to shift roughly from 1st to 2nd and then
slips badly in 2nd and 3rd.  Motor revs but not much power to the wheels.
I've been given the opinion by a friend who's a knowledgeable mechanic
regarding motors etc, but not so much automatic trannys.  ...
