Then drive to Texas. When mine was leaking I probably put it off for close to 50,000 miles. While you have it removed I recommend you take the opportunity to replace the side tappet gasket.is there a temporary fix I’m in Kansas and need to get back to south Texas to fix it
That's a pretty vague question. Is the engine stock? How big is the 5th wheel? How steep are the hills? Which transmission? An automatic was only rated for 160HP/400 TQ in 1995. A 5 speed wasn't much stronger 175/420. So yes, losing speed on hills would be expected with a trailer. An oil leak won't make it worse.Does this make me look speed on hills or over pass when pulling a 5th wheel camper i also loos speed when not pulling what can that be I’m new to this trucks I have only own gas trucks
I've boosted my power to over 300 HP and a 13,000 lb trailer will still slow me down. If you are considering adding more fuel to increase your power I suggest you do some research about the 47RH transmission. There is a reason why dodge put a lower powered engine in front of them.I got the truck in November and all I can see it’s stock and it’s a 5.9 automatic and what I’m pulling is a 5th wheel Rv 41 ft about 13,000 lb
