Electrical Problems in dodge ram
#12
New Coil , Cap , Rotor . Still no spark at #1 . Have you tried swapping a different plug wire on the cap at #1 to confirm the wires are good ? Didn't notice mentioning new ones .
Hopefully the TPS will fix the gas pedal response but it's really just a shot in the dark right now .
See how that goes , next step would be a proper fuel pressure test . 20lbs will seem like loads opening the valve but , it's not the 40ish it calls for . A leak down test would confirm a leaky injector , and a flow test would confirm delivery in the proper amount . Modern vehicles simply do not like being starved for fuel . I would also rate a fuel pump as a common issue .

I swapped wires and the #1 is bad so I'll get new wires and change the oil. Is a fuel pressure tester something that you could rent from O'Reilly? What spark plugs would you run? I'm using auto lite platinum. I'm going to this weekend pull the rails and injectors and check for leaks. Need a new ground wire for my multimeter as the tips broke off. I've heard injector resistance should be between 7 and 13 ohms but should be compared to the others.

Trying to chase down a possible fuel issue without a gauge is like trying to shoot a Moose with a slingshot . With the right tool , it's quick and less painful .

New spark plugs auto lite copper .035 gap new plug wires. Still a code 25 any way to test the iac/pcm. Haven't changed oil yet but my oil sending unit is broke off I noticed so that's why there is no oil problem codes? Sounds noticeably stronger but there is a pinging and gas reaction is better but not good. Still won't pull itself when put in gear.

PCM doesn't know squat about oil pressure, so, it doesn't care. You could lose all oil pressure completely, and the PCM would still happily run the motor right up to when it blew up.
Code 25 is telling you there is a short in the IAC wiring. If you changed the IAC, and still get the same code, time to trace the wires. Might have gotten pinched somewhere.
