Driveability concerns due to intake valve deposits: Dodge Ram 50 Engine & Powertrain

Problem overview

Some engines may develop driveability concerns due to carbon built up on the intake valves. Our technicians tell us that performing a fuel injector cleaning procedure can also help to remove intake valve deposits. Extremely heavy deposits may require cylinder head removal so that the valves can be removed and cleaned with a wire brush.
