    Glad you found it out early on. My advice is NEVER buy anything from a Facebook ad. I have tried a few items and every one was worthless with no recourse.

    Idiot lights now

    You might want to push all the fuses in. Rams are famous for the fuses not being all the way seated. My wasn't, although all were working, every fuse could be pushed further into the d]slot

    Hi my name is Mike Springstead

    Welcome to the forum. I have not heard of a "truck won't run" because of the Z46 recall. Nor have I heard of a dealer ever saying there's nothing they can do. When you say "dealer", exactly who made that statement? It would help if you gave more info about your truck.

    Hello

    With a CP4 failure, they should have replaced all of the injectors and their fuel lines, not just what they thought were bad. Not the truck's fault, the dealer's fault. Trust the truck!

    The only legitimate option is MRT tunes and equipment from EOC

    GDE is usually correct. I don't know if a flash is needed or not to reset the "zero fuel quantity learning", but I do know there's no flash associated with the Eco's HPFP recall. More confusion.

    I hear ya. Maybe it's a problem with the newer Ecos. My 2016 did not change, did you notice if the "numerous other posts" might be 2019+ vehicles or not? Anxious to know what their final analysis and fix is for yours.

    2018 Ram 1500 eco diesel -blown engine

    You don't say what engine blew. If it was an Ecodiesel, they are known to blow, seemingly often. It's been a huge problem. A leaking oil cooler could cause an engine to blow if it failed and drained out the oil while the truck was being driven, otherwise I don't believe it could. And yes...

    What fuel additive do you use

    I posted this earlier on this forum, here it is again, updated. Here's my experience with SFT: 01 - I strongly supported SFT since its beginning. 02 - I have used their ECU & TCU (Rally) tunes since 06/2019. 03 - My dealer completed the FCA W58 (tonewheel) flash. 04 - 6/9/21, I paid SFT $50.00...

    What fuel additive do you use

    I am familiar with all that you say. I looked at dishonest SFT's site and I don't see any of the changes that you posted. You can still get their tune with the EGR turned off, and if you choose to leave the EGR on, there's no way that "they're compliant" to avoid the EPA'S wrath." The only...

    What fuel additive do you use

    Interesting. What EPA crackdown are you talking about? Did dishonest SFT get a visit or did they make their EGR decision as an attempt to avoid a visit? Or ?????

    I accidentally put Regular gas in the engine!

    My fuel caps are the same. Every person I know who made the mistake has no identifying caps. These guys are long time diesel owners, it can happen to anyone, usually for not paying attention, being on the phone, or being distracted.

    I accidentally put Regular gas in the engine!

    The two persons I know who were refueled (the station attendant did it) with gas, when they were down to 1/3 tank or less, were dead in just a few miles. I know several who made the mistake but only put a few gallons of gas in. They added oil to the tank and fueled it with diesel and kept...

    If so, That would be great. Can you provide any proof of what you say?

    I'm not sure. The GDE tune is EPA and CARB compliant but the words in Ram's warranty tell me it voids the warranty. To get an official answer call Mopar Warranty, don't rely on what gets posted here, unless the poster provides confirmation.

    Thanks for the compliment but I'm not that knowledgeable. I don't have an answer. If it's a 4WD it is probably an alignment issue.

    It would not automatically tell them that "the factory tune was removed and then reinstalled". If the dealer was suspicious, they would have to search for the number of times the ECU had been flashed. That would tell them someone other than the dealer has been into the ECU, but not what was...

    Depends on what you mean by "it would tell them what’s going on".

    Help new to the eco- community

    I'm not a deleter so have limited knowledge but from what I do know it is not normal. Since you do not know about the tune I believe you will have to find a tuner who can restore the ECU to your VIN's factory tune and then retune to Stage 2.
