Don't worry about it, I just bought my son an '04 1500 ST. It's saving me money right now since diesel is $3.85 or more where we live, and he doens't drive enough to rate a diesel.

Starting to think getting this gasser wasn't such a bad idea as it's getting 25 plus MPG.

I gotta admit that not having to deal with the possibility of a diesel truck not starting in the winter cold has been nice. That's the only advantage I see that a gasser has over diesel...well a fuel injected gasser anyway.

Is that some kind of hip term for a cigarette lighter I don't know about?

You could always rip out the gasser when the plugs are bad and drop in a 12 valve

it is a thing they put in some engines that plugs the cylinder. for some reason they put a hole in the cylinder. this plugs it up and stops the spark from escaping.
