Does it matter what Throttle position sensor I get? The one I got is driveworks.

They ain't the best. (in fact, they are one of the worst.....) I like standard motor products, they seem decent for non-critical sensors.

Oh, well I ended up going with that one because it had decent reviews.

Will do, was thinking maybe switching the idle control valve out also just to be safe. Really don't want to have any issues over the winter

IAC REALLY needs to be a mopar unit. The aftermarket fellers can cause stalling at stops, erratic idle, etc. I put one in my 96 truck, to fix a no cold idle problem, and it sorta worked....... still stalled at stops far too often. Swapped that out with an old genuine mopar unit I pulled from another truck, and all my problems went away. Well, the wife is still here.... but, all the stalling problems stopped at least.

Alright, got it 👍 you said standard motor products is a good choice right? For crankshaft and idle control valve?

SMP for throttle position sensor. Mopar for crank sensor, and IAC.

Mopar doesn't pop up for fitment for my truck when it comes to Crankshaft, I got BWD mostly. Mopar did come up for fitment for the control valve though.

Get the real dodge part number from whatever source you can, then search by part number. find the best price for it.
