98 Dodge 1500 another problem
Hey all,
Perhaps some of you have read my computer woes a couple of weeks back. No fire,new crank position sensor, new coil, new cap, new rotor. Than towed to the shop where a new computer was put in.
4 days later again it would not start. This time I missed work. Called the shop that had fixed it 4 days back and they towed it within the hour. 2 days later the said the problem wasa burned upbuss under the fuse/relay box under the hood..
I bought a second car that day.
Today there is yet another problem.
Got in it to go to work and it would turn over and over but would not crank. No time to evakuate cause. Swapped some relays in the box...no help.
Turned the key to on and a contant rapid clicking under the hood was happening. I popped the hood and it wasthe vacuum thing on the right fender well. Just looked and my guess at this paoint is tranny vacuum. Just a guess. Uploaded a small picture of the clicker.
I just got home in my new car and hopped in the truck for yucks and she started right up.
I did hear that clicking for a second.
What the heck guys, this is 3 days it worked this time...disregarding th fact it just started. Something is amiss. I doubt this thing clicking is really keeping it from starting????&*^&^$ ASD relay.
It turned over great but I had no time to check fire or fuel though the fuel pump ran.
HELP... $2000 in 2 weeks on a8 year old truck

RE: 98 Dodge 1500 another problem
so anyone know what would make the purge solonoid start clicking like a ballcard in tire spokes...going fast.
Didit when the key was "on" and while turned to start.
Seems like the comupter to me but Ionly know what I havelearned this months cram session.
Yea...just coudn't bring myself to buy a Honda type car.Must have a truck for my side work, can't get a 2 x 6 in thegoat.
