2005 Dodge RAM 2500 Fuel system Problems

“While driving down highway gasoline started spewing under pressure from top of fuel pump, pulled into parking lot away from other vehicles and waited five to ten minutes before gasoline stopped spraying out. I had to have it towed home where I could check to find out if it was only a rubber hose as I expected or something else. I found out it was a fitting at top of the fuel pump which looks like metal connector where the gasoline was spraying out of a pin hole, I lost about 5 gallons of gas in 14 miles of highway driving.”

“2005 Dodge 2500 diesel. Starting at aprox. 27,000 miles, the truck began to idle roughly and was increasingly harder to start. At about 30k miles, the truck was taken to the dealership for repair. After about a week, the dealership informed us that the fuel was not diesel in the truck, and they did not know what it was.

“Driving home from work I noticed a strong smell of diesel fuel in the cab, looking in the rearview mirror I noticed that all the cars behind me had slowed down to a distance of approx. 300 feet and white smoke trailing behind the truck.

“I have an 05 RAM 2500 quad cab hemi truck with 3,200 miles on it. Since new the truck has had an erratic idle and would occasionally die when shifting from reverse to drive. The PCM has been flashed, the throttle body is projected to be replaced next. This problem is getting progressively worse as the truck recently stalled in traffic three times in a ten minute period. I will also be filling a similar complaint for my 05 hemi durango limited.”

“While driving home from work friday the #4 fuel tube that comes from the fuel bar and goes into the injectors started leaking causing diesel to leak over my entire motor and undercarriage of vehicle. I drove the vehicle about 20 miles as I did not know there was a leak. I could see smoke coming from what I thought was my exhaust behind the truck but then noticed my fuel gage started going down quickly and when I made it home smoke started coming from under hood. An extreme amount of smoke. About 10 gallons of diesel was leaked out. …”
