I have a 99 ram 4x4 with a 318. I went to leave today and my truck wont turn over. It will crank all day long though. All the electronics are working and the fuel pump and starter are fine. It did the same thing to me about 2 months and i changes the coil pack (ignition coil) and the plug that runs from the distributor to the coil pack. And i was back in business. It has the same signs and symptoms today. The truck ran fine 2 days ago and it did rain last night. Could there be moisture in the distributor? Or could it be something else? I need it fixed asap. Any advice would be great.

 

i would start with a new cap and rotor....sounds like a no brainer if everything else is working like you said. did you check to see if your getting spark from the coil?

 

does it have spark?

 

it rained the other night here too, and my truck did the exact same thing...it was weird because its NEVER done it to me EVER. but i think it had something to do with the rain as well.

 

Unscrew the pre cat 02 sensor and see if it starts.
