Last Week my truck started to have a real bad stumble at idle. It would loose 300 or 400 Rpms and then pick back up. It seemed to run fine above idle. I was out of town and took it to a dealer and they hooked it up. The check engine light had come on by then. It had set codes on four sensors the Tech. said. They were all positon sensors, Crank, Cam,fuel pump and ?. He cleared the codes and the Crank position sensor imeditaly re-coded. He told me that the crank sensor was bad, and it could send a false signal and cause the other sensors to code. They replaced the Crank sensor and it no longer stumples bad, but it is not idleing real smooth either. I noticed I have a leak at an injector line, problably a cross over tube. Any suggestion on the poor idle?????

Posm, had all the same problems asDarrelB's previous replies had, dealer replaced cam sensor and the problem was solved? Well for aweek then check eng. lite came back on again! Took it back to dealer and now they say the cam is bad! Besides the truck being down for approx. aweek, frustrations are peakin!!!!!!! This truck only has 50,000 on it, and has a bad cam? Reasons for frustations 96- BAD BRAKES! 98- lost motor 36,000( they said rings wrer put in upside down?), lift pumps, transfer pumps 01- as mentioned above. All the trucks got everything but, get tucked in at night! Delo, K&N, 4" etc. None of the trucks were bombed! Gettin tired of the problems with MOtorPARts! Been a mopar man since the 60's with a 68 SS/AA hemi cuda. My 73 1 ton 440 NEVER gave me the problems these new trucks are giving me! Plus it would level hills aka whathill. If i could get a CAT in a 3500 ford, i'd switch! And i rather push my Dodge than drive a ford. Guess i'm pretty frustrated uh? Anyway, GOOD LUCK and take care!
