Hey guys, so I've got the 2003 dodge ram 1500 3.7L v6, I've always dreamed of having me a blacked out dodge ram and finally got it but damn I found out real quick why I got a good deal, the ball joint's and tie rod ends were well let's just say wayyy past their expiration, the tires were from first glance not bad but close look had bald spots so had to get 4 new ones, but I'm rambling my issues I need some input on are 1. Squeaky belt/fan?? I have greased all I could grease without covering serp. Belt and yes, the belt is like brand new I've seen others with similar problems and researched and searched and nobody has came out with a solution!? 2. With this type engine and exhaust system... what's some reasonably cheap things I can do to enhance performance and torque, i have acquired the tune up chip and fuEl treatments, transmission treatment as well! Guys any feedback would be very appreciated thanks!!

Not too sure what a (2077) is. But as far as the motor is concerned. I would take it to any local auto parts store and have them hook up their ODBII tester. This will identify the fault codes that are obviously happening. Given this new info. you can now make informed decisions on what to address first. My guess is that the "throttle position sensor" is BAD. AND/OR the "mass air sensor" has issues. If all that gets you no better off, look at the ECU (electronic control unit). It literally regulates all motor performance. Hope this helped, Jason

Look at your air conditioner vent coming of the evaporator. Open hood and should be a 1/4 inch hose right by firewall on drivers side. They rarely leak, but sometimes fall off and normally discharge to ground. Be careful and depending where you live you can turn ac on and just wait to make sure its draining on the ground. Turn truck off and look for loose hose.Please be careful as there's lots of places you can cut yourself. I don't think it's the door gasket if you had a pro do it.

Pressure test cooling system for 30min . Pressure should remain at 15psi if it drops search for leak with
a bright flashlight. Be patient and good luck with your vehicle.

Do yourself a favor an take it to a qualified repair shop .

Just a hunch - remove the injectors and clean them to insure there is a path for the fuel to get into the intake manifold.

Better check the alternator diodes. Good luck.

Try connecting power directly to the horn and see if it goes off. If not, it would seem it needs replacing. If it works, maybe the horn switch on your steering wheel is broken. A simple process of elimination.

It was given to the new car owner of the truck with the owners info packet, if you do not have it contact the Ram dealer for help.

You should disconnect the battery first as you appear to have a short. Look for a broken or damages wiring harness around the fender. Where does the ground originate that you had taken "loose"? Did you fix anything recently or hit anything? Did you check that the red (positive) cable is attached to the positive (+) terminal on the battery? How much voltage were you seeing at the fender? did you test with a test light (tests the voltage potential under load)? Is your ground cable from the battery to the chassis and to the engine in good condition with tight fitting bolts?

Just a thought. My database didn't have removal info for multifunction switch.

Federal or california emissions?

My first car was a 1969 Dodge Coronet station wagon with the 318 cubic inch engine. Loved it! In my experience, the most common reason for this behavior is a bad crank or cam position sensor (assuming your car has one of those), since they tend to fail hot. Another possibility is that a dirty or worn ignition switch is supplying power to starter, but not the engine, when it gets warm. Try spraying with WD-40 to see if that helps.
