problem #1

2008Jun 02

Dakota SLT 3.9L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 200,000 miles

My truck will run fine for days. Then I'll be stopped at stop light and it will just idle down and die. I have to two-foot it for a about 5 minutes and everything is fine. Other times it will idle up to 2000rpms. I changed the throttle position sensor. (no luck)
