One problem related to fuel injection rail has been reported for the 1997 Dodge Ram 1500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500. I noticed a strong gas smell and found that the plastics fuel rail was spraying gas onto the intact manifold. This was located on the drivers side by the firewall. I took it to the dealer and I was told that the part was superseded by a new design and it would take a week to get the parts.
