  • trying to figure out what the problem is -- this is an update video
    everything has been replaced on the motor and new fuel pump, wires and plugs, and all Elec parts on the intake. And vacuum lines have been gone through.

    3.9 has issues with intake plenum gasket which could give you a miss fire and it wont give you a code. They have a kit you can get that changes the plenum base plate from steel to aluminum.

    Hello Ray! I hope you get it fixed and off your mind! I have a 1992 Dakota with 236,600 miles on it. Still runs good, but it does look beat up.
    I enjoy driving it due to it being simple. I have had more issues with my 2005 Dakota 4.7 l than the ,92! Keep the videos coming!

    Nothing worse than an intermittent problem. Hope it stays good.

    Your truck has a factory on board code reader from the odometer display. Turn the ignition key on / off 3 times and the odometer should display any codes such as emissions, fuel etc. No need for a separate code reader.

    Having the same issue on a 01' 3.9l, no code! yet feels like 1 cylinder is misfiring.. very noticeable on idle and heavy load or turning.
    Happened right after I replaced spark plugs, dist cap n' wires. But, I double checked and everything is hooked up right.
    Replaced the air filter, idle air valve, pcv valve, fixed a cracked vacuum line end AND still have problem. Guess I'll try upstream 02 sensor and fiddle with injector wires, these are old trucks.
    Let you know if anything changes.

    On some scanners they have a Live Feed besides codes. Shows pulse how engine is plus what cause.
    This is type of scanners Dakota ram owners needs.
    But could be bad injector map sensor throttle sensor idle sensor besides in take plenum.

    I don't remember what all you've done to diagnose the truck, but remember you need spark, fuel, compression, and timing.
    To find a dead cylinder, you can pull a plug wire one at a time. Observe how it's running when each one is pulled.
    Try a fuel system treatment like Techron or Seafoam to help clean out the injectors.
    Check compression of each cylinder to make sure one isn't low.
