When should Dodge Ram 3500 spark plugs be replaced?

Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.

What does a puddle underneath my Dodge Ram 3500 mean?

Puddles could indicate an oil leak, coolant leak, or brake fluid leak– all of which can critically hurt your engine. Have your engine inspected as soon as you spot a pool of liquid in your usual parking spot.

Are hard starts and stops bad for my Dodge Ram 3500 engine?

Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Ram 3500 can determine what kind of service it needs.
