'01 Dodge Ram, Odd Gas additive
Q:
I
was adding gas into my ‘01 Dodge Ram from a gas can and the stopper
fell into the gas tank. What can I do, and what trouble am I going to
have until I get it out?
A:
Don’t you just
feel special when stuff like that happens? Myself, if I could still add
gas without any problems I’d leave the little bugger in the gas
tank. But, still hold on to your gas can. Why? In the area of 100k to
120k your Dodge will most likely need a fuel pump. The fuel pump (actually
called a fuel pump module) is mounted in the gas tank. So when the fuel
pump module is replaced, ask the technician to save that piece of plastic
that is floating around in the tank. Then your gas can will be complete
once again.
