So as many of you may have noticed, my ole' dodge has been acting up lately. It all started a few weeks ago when I was heading to work. It drove perfect when I left, and then when making a left off the highway it was like the engine suddenly shrunk. It has no power on take off, after getting above 2000 rpms its like life is restored and we're making power again. I have checked the cat. Checked the plugs, replaced the plenum gasket. I've serviced and checked the transmission, I did find a broken 3-4 accumulator spring, but replacing that didn't fix the issue. I'm going to change the coil this evening. I haven't tested the fuel pressure. However, if it didn't have enough fuel at low speed to take off, then it certainly wouldn't have enough for higher speeds. I'm really at a loss here. No CEL light, no codes, it runs good other than pretending to be a go-kart engine with a monster turbo.
