Hi there. So I have a frustrating problem with my 2004 Ram. It has 113,680 on it to begin with. Recently I've had a problem with it when accelerating around 2k - 3k rpms where it'll start sputtering and backfiring. Sometimes it works through it, sometimes it'll completely stall and shut down. I've since replaced to cam shaft sensor, plugs, wires, and coil packets....to no avail....

Wondering if people have had the same problem and found a solution? My next step is the fuel pump...maybe it's getting just enough fuel to go, but not enough to accelerate past roughly 2500 RPM??

Any help is greatly appreciated.

What is the condition of your fuel injectors?

Fuel pump sounds like a good next cause. Maybe take it somewhere and have them test the fuel pressure to make sure before spending the time/money.

A guy on here just had the same exact problem with his, did all the same part changes also. It turned out to be the pcm, he left the battery terminals off over night and all was well in the morning. Maybe give that a try. A reset might do it. These pcm's are wacky. Good luck bud.

ya but mine never spit or stumbled till 2500k then it would kill 4 spark plugs i could rev mine past it to 3200 and it was good if i held it at 2500 it would trip and mine was good driving it i didnt get past 2500 rpms. yours sounds like fuel pump or maybe a filter is clogged. but hay try the batt trick first its free!
