Asked by GuruN3BBJ Nov 11, 2019 at 11:42 AM about the 2008 Dodge RAM 1500 Laramie Quad Cab 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

2008 Dodge Ram 1500 gas back out fill when fueling, deceased gas mileage, will only take a trickle of gas at pump

1 Answer

I've got an 09 Big Horn and mines doing the same thing. Occasionally I get lucky and dont get the gas backsplash, but not very often. I've gotten very good at figuring out roughly how many gallons are needed so I can ease up when getting close. And now all of a sudden instead of 18.8-19.3 avg mpg I'm down to 14.4-15.3. Please update post if you find a fix. Ty
