Hi folks, i have a 2012 Ram 1500 3.7 lt V6 that start acting weird one month ago. The problem is that sometimes it does not fire up at the first try, and its getting worst. It appears to be random, at least i have not found a type of sequence or pattern, it seams to appear from no where.

The problem is kind of weird because i have no error code on dash, you turn the key and it cranks well so there is no problem with the battery. Also i can hear the gas pump charging the line but you can keep cranking and do not why but it does not start. Sometimes i have to crank it like 10 times to get it running, and sometimes at the first try.

Does any one has a clue? By the way i have taken the truck to the dealer and those idiots told me that the aftermarket car alarm was the problem so they remove the entire alarm but here i am now typping to you because the problem is back.

Hope you can give me some advice.

If the starter is turning it over, there is no magic pill here but getting down to basics of "fuel, air & spark". Got to pick one and go from there.
