Hello everyone I'm new to the forum and just wanted to ask for your advice. I own a 2005 1500 with the 3.7 and auto trans. Recently ive had some engines issue. Ill try to describe it and if yall could tell me what you think that would be awesome.
When I cruising on the hwy everything is good until I start up a hill. About halfway up the engine stutters and I lose power for a moment. It's almost like its dying but everything stays on and the engine is still on. After second or so it goes back to normal. It doesn't do this all the time it just picks and chooses. Also sometimes when its at idle in park the rpms drop to about 400 and it becomes really rough again doesn't always do this. Any suggestions? Thanks for your time

Sounds to me like its the tps- throttle position sensor. It usually causes the symptoms you describe.

How many miles are on it? Could be the beginning of a clogged cat or bad torque convertor clutch
