Default WHATS WRONG WITH MY SRT ?

Well about a week ago my car went low on engine coolant,so i bought some(not mopar but same chemicals) so everything was good,but all of a sudden when im going WOT sometimes my car boggles out at 3k or 4k rpm,like if it wants to shut off,could it be my spark plugs???? thanks

go out to your car. turn the key forward (dont start it), turn it back, then turn it forward again (i think you do it twice). be ready with pen and paper, it will display a "P" code. write that bitch down and look it up here on the forum.

BTW, you don't have a distributor cap, or points, or a condenser. Just in case your friends tell you to check those..........

The codes will be displayed where the odometer is and they will be the letter "P" followed by 4 digits.

What year is your SRT-4? It could either be a spark or fuel related problem or something else entirely. What, if any, modifications have you done to it?
