Thanks for all of your previous help,the starting problem is fixed on my 94 ram 2500, it has a 5.2l engine and is a 4x2. now I have a new problem, when I took it out for a test drive and came to a stop it wanted to die, this was after it warmed up, when it was cold and running with the choke it was fine, when the rpms dropped the oil light came on and the pressure guage dropped to 0. Giving it gas to normal idle rpm the light went off and the pressure comes back to normal.I can also hear what sounds like a vaccuum leak but I can't find anything. My questions are, where are the egr valve and oil pressure sending unit located on this engine and is there some sort of an idle speed actuator on it? it seems that something must have been knocked loose when we were replacing the spark plug wires and dist cap. any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

EGR is on the back side of the intake, passenger side. OPS is just to the drivers side of that, and slightly behind. IAC (idle air control) is on the back side of the throttle body. Might wanna disconnect the battery, yank the throttle body, pull the IAC off, and then clean everything really well. Put it back together, and see if that doesn't improve it's attitude any.

 

Our Durango did the same thing. Removed the IAC and cleaned it and all was well again.

 

Might want to check and see if you have a gasket between your TB and air cleaner box. It will suck in a lot of air, mine was loud when I bought it and found no gasket betweek the two.

 

Thanks a lot guys, I cleaned the iac and it does have a better attitude. I've got my ram back!
