Engine problem DESPERATE FOR HELP
Sorry if I crashed the party, im desperate and really want to fix my poor dakota
So everything is fine except when you step on it and it gets to about 2500 RPM it starts to sputter and jerk really hard and wont stop until it gets back down to like 2200 RPM, even if you take your foot off the petal.
Replaced the cam sensor twice, replaced the trucks computer, had it checked by several mechanics and took it to a Dodge dealership and no one has been able to even tell me whats wrong with it!
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!! Thank you!

I had an issue with my 08 dakota not having enough power and falling flat when I went to climb hills or get on the highway, had a few shops try to figure out the problem but still no luck. I though I had a transmission issue but it wasn't that. The only reason I am saying this is because in my quest for an answer to the problem I am still having I found out the the governer pressure sensor in the transmission is almost a 100% fail rate for these truck according to the transmission guy I went to. So you may want to look into that. It didn't help fix my truck but it many help for your problem.

Its an 06 with 250k on it. I have the option of replacing the engine with a used 5.2 ram engine, but i don't want to bother doing that if it wont fix the problem.

lol I was told it was possible. Im not much of a car expert at all so im trying to get the best advice i can find. if putting a new engine in it wouldnt solve the problem I'm just going to sell it back. Just want to know if the problem IS fixable or not but it sounds like it isnt.

There was a spark issue and we fixed that, didn't fix the bigger problem though. I'll see if we can check the fuel filter this weekend.
