Exclamation What is wrong with my truck? :video

Runs good until it warms up. Then I can't accelerate, rpms bounce around when off the throtle, etc. Then it seems to get a little better, but not good. Replaced the coil, tps, air-temp charge sensor. Cap, rotor, plugs, wires are all good. Not showing any engine codes either. Really appreciate all help!

why does it look like you're in neutral? and your oil pressure seems a bit high

that is weird though, you floored it and it didnt accelerate at all

Bad TPS? My daughter had something similar happen on her way to Virgina on the highway. I think that was the problem. Someone better than me can probably answer this though.

Good luck.

I replaced my TPS last week. It helped with my shifting problems, but not issue that you can see in the video. I am being told on another forum that it is a bad O2 sensor or a bad coolant temp sensor...but it just seems that everyone is guessing. I was hoping to find somebody that has had this problem and solved it. Thanks for taking the time to help me guys!

I looks like neutral, but it's really drive. The gear selector is off on my truck.

The gear selector is off. It is really in drive, but looks like N. I don't get why I am throwing a P0132 code today and not yesterday. Yesterday I unhooked the upstream O2 sensor and went for a drive...it threw a code (didn't check it)....hooked it back up, disconnected the battery....today I unhook the coolant temp sensor and spray it with electronic cleaner and hook it back up, i also spray some other random sensors that I see.....start it back up and 5 min. later I throw the P0132 High voltage bank 1 code....I unhooked the battery again and it still came back. What does that tell you guys?

I found some interesting info on the forum, its a different engine but similar problem, loosing power on acceleration ... https://dodgeforum.com/forum/general...ensor-one.html

More info here http://www.obd-codes.com/p0132

Either way sounds like a O2 is failing.
Might help out...
