Did you ever do a crank sensor in it?
Yep and a cam sensor too. My only real complaint was that it burned two quarts of oil every 3000 from the day I bought it new.

Those crank sensors were a pain. I did one. All BBC's burn oil.
Yep, especially when they break off and you have to dig out the remaining half.
You guys are close, but that's not the ONE common denominator all these "war" threads have, but keep the guesses coming....
I think the ram 1500 diesel just gives a guy who runs a 1/2 ton a lot of miles the chance to save on fuel. It also, as mentioned above, gives a guy to own a diesel engine. Sometimes life has to be fun. I see a lot of guys endure a lot of put downs in this forum because they own "too much truck", or own a diesel but have no justifiable use for one.
I know a lot of those smae people own Harleys, boats and planes and have no justified reason for owning them, either, except that it's fun to own one.
Everything I own is diesel. It pretty much has to be that way because we have tanks of it here on the property and they havent made any gas powered farm tractors in a long long time. I wouldnt touch a Ford gas engine for serious truck useage. Only gas engine I'd consider is a big block IH gasser or a GM 8.1L gasser for a truck used for serious hi mileage hauling.
I wouldnt want a gas tractor anyway. Had one field fire from a hot baler bearing. Would have hated to be sitting on 100 gallons of gas instead of diesel....

Looks like trouble at the plant proposed to produce the diesel Ram.

I liked how it said 16 out of 58 truckes passed final inspection, they need to get that number up 78% or to 28 trucks a hour. That is pretty low.
