Re: The new GC with Hemi
As far as the Fly by wire accelerator, My FSM on my Ram 1500 Hemi says to
turn the key to the on position and let it sit for >10 secs to calibrate the
accelerator. You shouldn't have to do this very often unless the battery
is disco'd or a PCM flash is updated.

Re: The new GC with Hemi
i have not heard of any lifter issues
hell we haven't even had one engine apart yet at my dealer
i do know that they have been making 80 hemis a day at the plant and could make
110 a day but were told to keep the 80 going so quility stays high
whiuch means some delay on new models from what a friend told me whos pretty
high up, he did say the dak is getting one buts its's a year out at least

From their description, it sounds like the same principle as compressing
a rubber ball - yes, you put energy in when you compress it, but you get
most of it back when you release it. There's always some loss to friction
and heat, but it shouldn't be too bad.
