im thinking its a fuel problem but need help
my 95 dakota runs great at times but runs poorly more,its stalls or just acts as if its starving for fuel and just wont go.ive replaced the fuelpump,and about all the sensors please if anyone has any ideas let me know
Check fuel pressure at the rail. I believe you should have 35-45 psi. If not giving you have replaced the pump try the fuel regulator. If you do have the 35-45 then I would agree with crazy.
Post more info about the problem, also check flash codes and post them up here.

flash codes are 11=no ref signal..21=o2 sensor..24= tps,replaced...42=auto shutdown relay,replaced...32=egr,replaced..31=purge solenoid,replaced...ive also replaced the brain,fuel pump and map sensor..checked fuel pressure, gage showing 40
truck starts fine,sometimes dies usally when stopping,while driving the truck starts jerking sometimes i can push in the clutch and it will idle but as soon as i try to go again it starts jerking sometimes even with the clutch in no matter how much gas i try to give it does nothing sometimes im able to get the rpms up and ride the clutch to get going but even that dont always work this even happens when doing 70 mph

or clean it out with carb cleaner, thats all I had to do for mine and it's the original from 93. legit just generously soak it and work it with your hands till it frees up.

A bad o2 sensor will cause everything that you are describing.. yet it's the only part that you have not replaced yet. And with that being said, chances are VERY good that all the other codes are only popping up because of this bad o2 sensor. Try replacing this, and then let us know how its running/driving
The o2 sensor is VERY vital to the runability of your vehicle, it tells the computer how much left over air/fuel is coming out the tailpipe. This, coupled with readings from various other sensors, allows the computer to set the timing and fuel/air ratio in real-time (Based on how you are driving at that exact moment in time). If this sensor is out of whack, the computer will have problems setting the timing correctly

i agree with rockguard, but the very first thing you need to do is go to advance auto parts or something, (if you dont have an obdI scanner), and clear the codes. see what comes back. thats way too long of a list to start narrowing down if youve already replaced some of the things you got codes for.
ok so today the weather has dropped about 25 degrees and the trucks been running like a champ anyone have any ideas on that....i replaced the o2 sensor and injecters today but not sure of any change beings as its been running rite all day...im thinking something may be getting to hot and acting up but with the cool weather its not over heating but what if thats the case
