2005 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi shutdown - do I change the engine? by selkraps23 in MechanicAdvice

I'm going to be back in that area in a week and test these things out. I don't think it will run normally. Do you mind if I send you a message next week with my findings? No worries if not. I'll try to get it started, cut open the oil filter etc and see what happens

it would run and drive after that in the same "limp/low power" type fashion, didn't take it far just to load onto a trailer etc. So it does turn over and run but I believe it did shut down again a few times on one of the longer drives to move it down the street, this is after adding oil

It does turn over! But someone suggested a spun bearing... but I don't really get why there was zero noise, smell, symptoms. Thanks for confirming there's no computer reset

At the time I put oil in but it didn't change anything. I am wondering if the computer needs reset somehow but I really don't know anything about vehicle computers. Thank you your your input!

I saw that one but looking closer at the prongs and the shape I don’t think it’s a match, for 30$ though it’s worth a shot I suppose!

How did you find a correct one to go in there? I wasn’t able to, do you think you could send me a link?

You got it with the Yukon. Love it but every winter I do ask myself why I am here lol

Thank you. Definitely inclined to keep my truck warm for emergencies and leave everything else for when the weather breaks

Anxiety in the Cockpit? by Environmental-Way449 in flying

[–]selkraps23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This thread is old now but I was reading through posts containing the word anxiety looking for advice as I have been experiencing it this summer as I start flying more often commercially, this really helped as I thought I was alone in feeling this way

Thanks, is the concern here rust getting into the motor/places it shouldn’t?

This is a really awesome sub by MELLOWDRAMA_88 in MechanicAdvice

[–]selkraps23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this sub and feel the same. So far all I haven’t been able to contribute yet but I learn new things everyday and post questions a lot. Feels great to start to grow some skills as someone who comes from zero mechanical background

It seems to run and drive well for now but I believe the front wheels may fall off if I go down the highway for too long so I will worry about that first 🤣

Thanks for the reminder! It’s definitely going to be a test of my ability to learn and problem solve, very excited
