On average, dodge RAM consumes about 16 litters of gasoline per 100 km in the combined cycle. Although in the case of a full load, versions of 5.7 litters or more consume 25-30 litters per 100 km in urban mode. It is possible to save money by driving in a measured way while driving on highways. Also, you can turn off half of the cylinders using the MDS system.

Since the naturally aspirated Dodge Ram 4.7 engine runs on gasoline with an octane number below AI-95 without any problems, many owners are trying to save on fuel. But this is a dubious saving because, in case of wear of the same candles in the HEMI engine for 5.7 litters, the replacement will cost at least 100 USD. Therefore, if you are not sure about the quality of fuel at the gas station, we recommend adding FuelEXx Gasoline additive to the tank. It will increase the octane index of gasoline by 3-5 units, eliminate carbon deposits and lacquer deposits from the surface of the combustion chamber, uncloak the piston rings, and remove water from the fuel. It also increases the work of Lash adjusters. Thanks to the use of such an additive, fuel consumption can be reduced to 10-15%. And in the case of large-volume gasoline ice, this is a solid financial saving.

The Dodge 4.7 RAM has various mechanical and automatic transmissions during the release. At the same time, the models of the first years of release came with outdate at moment three-speed transmissions of the Torqueflite A727 type. And already on modern versions of Dodge RAM automatic transmission are installed on 5, 6, and even 8 steps. To extend their resource, the additive RVS Master Transmission Atr7 is suitable. But the manual transmission and axles should be treated with an additive RVS Master Transmission Tr5, as it will strengthen their components, make switching easy and smooth, and compensate for the existing wear.

In most internal combustion engines, the gas distribution mechanism contains parts that ensure the transfer of force from the camshaft to the valves-pushers. Let's find out more about it;

What is a Valve lifter?
