Unhook ur battery. Then unplug the two oxygen sensors. The one upstream and the one downstream of the converter. Hook ur battery back up. Leave the oxygen sensors unpluged. Just tie ur wires up so they dont hang down. Should take care of ur problem. Ur engine light will stay on but it should take care of ur problem. It will throw ur computer into retard mode.lol. mine done the same thing.

Read the owners manual, it covers this. You need to put in premium gas and everything will be fine. The check engine light will even go off on its own after a while.

I know this is an old thread but I have a 2001 Dodge ram 5.2 liter with similar issue idles fine no code... under load hesitates and stumbles intermittently sometimes I can pedal through but once I let off throttle and and rpms return to 1500 or less when I hit gas again the hesitation studder returns...I have cheap odb2 reader that reads live data in which it all seems to be normal outside of Bank One sensor One o2 sensor not spiking from .9 to .1 in single strokes it joggles around a bit in- between instead of the sharp up and down readings ?? I know that wasn't the best explanation but I am seriously lost...
