Hello all. I just bought my 1st Dodge 2005 Ram 1500 with 108,000 miles on it 4.7. I really like the truck plenty of room. My 1st issue...When I got the truck it had a code P0016. The truck runs fine and idles smoothly, however, I just found that when I accelerate hard above 3000 the engine stumbles and looses power until you let off.
Any ideas??
Thank you.

 

Did you fix the issue causing the P0016 code?

 

No, I just posted today.

 

Fix the known issues first. The truck is literally telling you whats wrong.

 

 

Well, I replaced the cam and crank sensors but still throwing the code. Any Ideas?

 

Did you reset the computer after changing sensors?

It's whining about cam and crank signals not being what the PCM expects. So, possibly a stretched timing chain?

 

I've seen this happen one time, and problem was a failed timing chain tensioner. The plastic guides in the tensioner were cracked and broken. .
