Ok heres the problem, when I bought the truck with 52000 km on it I was getting about 550km to a tank well now with 113000 on the truck I am getting 430km per tank. The wires are good and the plugs were new just before the last tank. My father's truck is a 2004 and he is getting about 800km to a tank. As for my brother who drives it like a race car well he gets around 550km per tank still, on his 2004 with 135000km on it. Can anyone fix this problem for me or at least let me know how to fix it. PLEASE

Thanks to everyone especially to Hemi-pup, I printed out your stuff on the PCV valve and went to the dealer and said what no PCV valve are you sure. So he checked the manuals and low and behold and $55.00 later I have a new PCV valve. I am getting 13 mpg now so lets see what this brings...Thanks again everyone..

Or you can buy a 5.7 Hemi PCV valve online for $22 like I did. Where they got me is in the price of the shipping Roll Eyes . But if you live close to Kingston, MD you can pic one up there at My Mopar Warehouse and just pay $22 for it. thumb2

Ya I know I got hosed but it was the only place that had one right away.The other place I found only wanted 42.00 for it but it would take 3 days to get.And don't forget we get hosed on all things remember free trade price where to even out, ya they evened out above everyone else. But hey on a brite note I am now geting 18 19mpg instead of 11 to 13. it was worth the 55.00..
