Truck running rough
#12
I'm not sure if its the original or not, the motor is a replacement from another 95 ram 1500 and has around 160,000 miles I was told (dash says 221,xxx) also was told that the transmission had been rebuilt and had less then 20,000 miles on it when I bought it and had paperwork to prove it but its been 8 months and I have yet to see any paperwork and I continue to ask, but I know for sure the motor was replaced because its got the initials on it from the junkyard

What are they talking about changing the VIN? Thats weird how just changing the VIN would do anything. But I have been reading that it could be the computer not set to my truck which would effect shifting, which I have to sometimes let off the gas for it to change to 4th (since computer change), I guess misfiring maybe because it slips around 55mph and if I'm at a consistent speed the slipping will continue untill I let off the gas or speed up, dodge told me it was $95 for them to change my VIN. I just don't have $95 to pay them and it not even fix it. I have no clue but I need my truck fixed

Very rarely is the computer ever the problem. People jump to "it's the computer" becuas ethey domt understand how the whole system works.
