    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) I've had it..I'm going to shoot my dodge

    I'll check for the map sensor. I'm trying to change all the less expensive parts first before I change the VP (again). I have two brand new batteries in there... this problem happened both before the battery change and after. I'd just like to thank everyone for their input. I'll try the "turn...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) I've had it..I'm going to shoot my dodge

    Symptoms: Hard Starting, sometimes when it starts (after much cranking)... I get no power... . it can rev to 2000 rpms... but feels like 15 HP. It takes me 1/2 a mile to get up to 45 mph. Then all of a sudden, like a light switch is turned on, the engine regains it's normal power. You drive...

    Fuel prices$$$, Go write your....

    ... because we have a free market economy. The governmint does not "control" oil prices any more than it controls the price of Charmin bathroom tissue, or Tobasco sauce.

    $3.20 for a gallon of Diesel !!!

    Why are there so many whiners here on TDR regarding the price of diesel. You people should have all plopped down $1000. 00 on oil futures at the beginning of the Iraq war, you would have turned over a $5000. 00 profit. Think of how much fuel $5000. 00 could buy when factoring in the price of...

    Rodents in the yard...

    I had a similar problem and took rubber cement and gooped up a few bicycle inner tubes with it. ... . slit the tube so it's a long thingy instead of a round thingy... take a broom stick and shove one end as far as you can into the deepest hole you can find. Leave a bit protruding from the hole...

    I got my software and code reader today... installed software on my laptop and hooked it up to my 99. . what a waste of money. I'm sending it back to get my $105. 00 refund. BFD, I can see a kewel little chart that tells me my rpm. I can also look at my dam%$! tach and see that. I get a...

    I sent away for some code reading software for my laptop... hopefully I'll get it tomorrow and be able to read it. :) My truck is a 99.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) strange symptoms, can anyone give advice?

    I'm on my second VP, third LP and second APPS... . 130,000 miles Fuel pressure is a constant 12 psi. If I drive on the highway for a few miles... the power cuts out. I can get my power back by pushing in my clutch and waiting until the RPM's go to idle speed, then I let clutch out and something...

    ? for Truck painters

    You can do ghost flames several ways. First, chemical clean your truck, wetsand what ever panels you intend to flame with 600 grit (for lighter base colored trucks)... or 800 grit ( for darker colored trucks). Chemical clean again. Wash your freaking hands before and during the masking...

    No More Diesel Liberties in WA or Calif---

    What would happen if a person lived in Ct... . let's say... and then bought a Liberty... and 2 years later moved to Vermont? Would he / she be allowed to register the vehicle in Vermont? Just curious.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Is Dodge going to offer the lift pump in the tank kit for 2nd gen trucks?

    ... maybe I'm out of the loop here... is this kit to be offered by Dodge? Is it Aftermarket? Can you point me towards more info on this?

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Time for suspension upgrades. Skyjacker?

    I purchased Skyjacker front coils and rear leaf spring packs. Within 2 years, the rear leaves sagged over 2 inches... the front coils sagged 1-1/2 inches. I had to add a 3 inch lift block to make up the difference... . I have a Transfer flow aux fuel cell rear of my axle and also run my...

    Off Roading Newby with home made "levelling kit"

    If my memory serves me correctly, King offroad recommended an 800 Lb spring. I've actually got to get back in there and unscrew the spring collar a bit to soften up the ride a notch. Adjusting the preload is a simple matter of jacking the truck up, letting the suspension sag, unbolting the...

    I am very disappointed that we aren't making this a National Security Issue----OIL

    Ok, just some thoughts. Why would you expect a President who is an "oil man" from Texas (Connecticut, really) "do something about high oil prices"? I like GWB as a President, with the exception of two things: 1. His turning a blind eye to out insecure borders and 2. the way he...
