MY 98 RAM 1500 V6 WITH 84000 MILES IS SPUTTERING AND WILL NOT GO OVER 20 MPH WITH OUT ALMOST DYEING ON ME HAS ANYBODY ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM OR CAN ANYONE SUGGEST WHERE I SHOULD START MY TROUBLESHOOTING?

 

BUMP

 

No CEL? No codes?

Blocked cat ... dirty TPS ... bad gas.

What were the circumstances around when it started doing this?

Anyways like TMS said, either fuel pump isn't putting out good presure or your cats clogged. My money is that the cat is clogged. Crawl under and take out the O2 sensor BEFORE the cat and start it up. See if it will idle better, usually that hole the O2 was in will let out enough exhaust so you can tell if thats the problem.

 

 

i had the same exact problem. i took the exhaust off. and took a bar up the cat and blew it all out and its running a lot better

 

Thanks for the advice guys. My first thought was that it was the cat I just didn't check it yet but now I am going to. Sounds like a pretty simple fix.
