The other day I went to pass some slow drivers and when I let out of the gas the truck backfired. Then last night in the snow storm she slid off the road into a very small ditch. Now today when it shifts to 3rd and O/D it starts sputtering like it is running out of gas. But if I give it enough...

I have low compression im my 4th cylinder which causes it to misfire. I have had 2 shops look at it and I've had a lot of speculation about what is wrong. Im not sure where to start. I have good spark and fuel so I'm worried my lifters or cam might be broken.

Took the 02 Grand Caravan to mechanic due to engine thump, thump, thump during hard acceleration. Engine code says misfire on cyl 5. Mechanic says pressure on #5 is 160 whereas the other cylinders are in the 130 range. They suspect valve not opening and possible flattened lobe on cam. Plus it...

About a week ago I started my truck up and it started misfiring; previous day ran fine. Codes P0300, P0306, and P0308. Changed the cap, rotor, plugs, wires, and coil. There are no vacuum leaks and the plenum is sealed with no oil in the intake. The misfire is most apparent at 40-55 MPH when it...

I have owned a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.2L 318 for about two years now and for the past month i have had a misfire that i cannot for the life of me fix. When i first got the check engine light I ran the scanner to find out that there was a random misfire on cylinders 7 and 3. Since then i...

I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 with 187k miles on it, all original so she is old and things are prone to break. The other day (after whipping a donut in a snowy parking lot, don't lecture me :grin ) my check engine light came on. I did the little key trick and the code was P 0301. I googled it to...

Hello all. I don't have much more hair to pull out so I beg your thoughts. I have a 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 with 5.7 Hemi. Got a misfire in #2 . Changed all plugs, changed coil and checked fuel injectors. I pulled out plugs in #2 and rechecked and they were black. A good friend of mine is a...

I have a 2003 Dakota 4.7 engine. I have owned the truck a few years now and every spring/summer, when the weather outside gets above 60, the truck develops a weird slight shake. The shake, to me, feels like a slight cough or mis, or like the engine is running rougher. I have had the truck to...

Hello I am posting for my step-father. He has a 03 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi. (VIN:1D7HU18D73J646483). Occasionally the truck runs bad and misfires. We have had issues with that before and replaced a ignition coil & spark plug on the misfiring cylinder. Then a water pump. This cleared it up for a...

1997 Ram 2500, 5.9 360 with 148k miles. Stock motor. The problem is a slight, very random, miss. The scenario is I'll be driving or idling, and the truck will miss. Just once. Almost like the truck just quits. It happens so fast and unexpected I've never noticed if the gauges fall or anything...
