1999 dodge Durango 5.2l V8 4x4
I have a 5.2l dodge Durango 99, it has 120k miles and already starting problems. When she's idling, she'll idle extremely low but wont die, don't know what would be causing that. Then I have another problem I've invested almost 600 into her. Everytime I get her around 45 mph she stars jerking and losing power while backfiring and shooting out sting fumes. But after 5ish miles she'll run correctly until I shut her off and her computer restarts. I've cleaned the spark plugs, heads, pre-cat 02, 02 sensors, spark plugs/ wires, throttle body, and map sensors. I'm fairly new to car (only been working on them for about 2ish years). Please help.

Thank you for the quick reply. I'll look into that first thing tomorrow morning. If it is the problem I would owe you my life. I've been struggling on this problem for almost 3 years and had no progress.

I recently removed the throttle body and cleaned everything on it, took special care around the components. It fixed the randomly dying when I slow down but still chugs.
I'll give a better description on the problem,
As im driving maybe around 20-50mph it starts to somewhat jerks/hesitate. As if its dying from no gas. You can pump it and it'll accelerate but go down quickly while jerking
But if you remain the same amount of pressure on the gas it'll eventually go through the course and backfire.
I was thinking the gas line could be leaking causing it to get too much air and not enough gas. The rotor on the distributor could be lose. A crankshaft could be jamming.
When it starts to chug/hesitate/backfire
It feels like not all the fumes are exiting the exhaust, then when it backfire it seems to clean itself up. I also get this horrible smell when it's chugging.
Please help.
Sincerely,
Chevy

Codes
These are the recent codes I've received in the past few weeks,
PO443
EVAP Purge solenoid circuit
PO141
02 Sensor 1/2 heater performance
Dodge (ABS 65)
Open Power Relay Contacts
Dodge (ABS 45)
Open Iso Solenoid Or Shorted ECU output LF
P1594
Battery Voltage High
Don't know if any of those codes could cause a misfire, but I'm not that experienced on vehicles yet.
