Just recently my 2010 Ram 1500 started to have troubles starting. Not all the time but i noticed it happen if i turn the key and start right away. When i allow it to sit in start and allow the electronics to fire up then start it seems to be fine. Could this be a fuel pump?

Also, while driving, i have had it happen multiple times when i will make a turn, get on the accelerator and have a complete lose of power. RPM's bottom out and my Electronic Throttle Control light will pop on.

Im no truck wiz, i can manage the simple things and follow instructions well, so please HELP! lol
