hey guys.. im running a 2000 dodge ram 1500 sport 4x4 which has the lovely 5.9L V8 .. issues are as follows:

Starts fine, idols nice, pressing the gas she rev's good.I drive for about 2miles no problem, pull a U-turn and go to hit the gas and the engine seems to suddenly bog down,caugh, sputter,sometimes even stalls out.. Put it in park and it will again, idol fine, rev fine.. we have checked the fluids,all are good, vacuum tested and its good.. looked down the intake for oil and all is well....

anyone have any idea's on what it could be??

 

Just don't do u-turns.

Fuel pump maybe?
What is your fuel level when whipping the turn?
If its fairly low it might be the fuel pump.

 

Sounds like an o2 sensor. Mine did the same thing everday on the way to and from work in about the same place give or take a mile. No code was thrown either.

 

do the key dance thing - on, off, on, off, on and check for codes.

 

+1 on the O2 sensor. Unplug it and see if it will make a difference.

 

i can have a full tank of gas and it will still do it.. currently i have about half a tank in her.. and my u-turns aren't all that crazy lol.. the issue pisses me off when im in town at a red light and when it turns green, the truck doesn't want to go lol .. .. .. O2 sensor will be checked for sure
