Ok.

Find out what's missing. Check fuel pressure, and spark. Have your dad pick up a noid light from work, and make sure you are getting injector pulse.

Welp, they went ahead and replaced the computer AGAIN, and it runs, doesnt shift like an automatic should, but can reach all gears by using 1,2,Drive and OD on/off so.. It works?.. Sorta..

My sister is planning on selling it soon since shes tired of messing with it. Someone has offered her 2500 as is. So I guess take what you can get. Sure is a waste of a good engine though, the 5.2 thats in it is a nice one

I read somewhere that the actuators have to be calibrated by the dealership.

Probably not what you wanted to see...

Default Truck runs when it wants to

Hi everyone i'm new on here and I was wondering if someone can possibly help me and if anybody knows why my truck keeps dying. I Have a 1996 dodge Ram 1500 5.2 that well start up with no problem but theirs times were all it well do is crank. when it does not start I notice that the fuel pump don't prime (changed fuel pump a year ago) and it just cranks. It can go on for a couple days like that and then everything starts working again and the truck well start and run again with know problem. I have checked everything and i'm at a total loss. I am afraid to drive the truck do to this problem because the truck can go days without starting before it starts working again. If someone can help me that would be great. Thank you for your time.
