1992 Dakota choked
Dakota 1992 v6 3.9 Club Cab.
An Hour ago (see post date & hour) It was raining kinda hard here, I drove to my house, no big deal, (just 10 mins of driving) When I arrived I opened my door house, and entered again to my truck, and turned on the key, and nothing... I pushed the acelerator, and nothing.... my engine is choked, I managed to push my truck into my house and parked it, dot know what to do, the last tuesday I tunned it. Oil change, injector cleaned. double plantinum sparks, air filter, etc. It smells a lot of gasoline. Any Idea?

When you say nothing, please be more specific. Are you saying there were no dash lights, or the starter didn't turn, or the starter did turn but the truck never fired?
I'm going to assume since you said it smelled like gasoline that the engine did turn over but wouldn't fire, and it was injecting gas that it wasn't burning. The first thing that comes to my mind is the notorious ASD/Fuel Pump relay power splice, but I need more info.

The starter did tunr but the truck never fired and I can hear the fuel pump working, a lil sound like "rtrrr rrttt"
That splice is a very unpredictable problem, it can corrode the connection to the ASD, but still provide power to the fuel pump or vise versa. I would start there if I were trying to pinpoint an ignition problem.
