2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7 stalls on acceleration

Asked by Chris Oct 02, 2016 at 09:12 PM about the 2005 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT Quad Cab 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

This truck has been idling a little rough for the about a week and has
stalled after I put it in park. At first I thought it might be bad fuel (winter
mix). I filled up with different fuel, and it seemed better. Today while driving
on the highway, I went pass another car, I hit the gas and the truck just
died. Didn't sputter at all, just died. It started right back up but every time it
was under a load (going up hill or trying to pass) it would die. Each time it
would start back up. Check engine light never came on. I was able to drive
it home about 50 MPH.

Start by checking fuel pressure, fuel filter, sparkplugs and clean the throttle body. If it still does it, u may want to take it to a shop and check sensors with live data scanner
