OK people this could be a tough one!Recently I did a valve job on my 99 Dodge Dakota. Was running fine but now after i start up and 1/2 mile of driving, it sputs and lose power I put it in N and race it a couple of times and runs fine until its stop and the cycle starts again. I have replaced the idle vacumn, speed sensor, dist. cap, wires, plugs and had the Dist. index on a elct. meter $$$ but its still has the same prob. I need some help big time help solved this mystery. Thanks for looking…

My guess would be a faulty fuel pump. How many miles on the truck?

Have you scanned the computer for trouble codes?? I would start there.

I was told that if it was the fuel pump that it would act that way all the time?

Would you know this code no. P0132,02 Sensor Circuit high voltage (bank  
1 sensor 1) Does this mean to replace the 02 Sensor?

My problem is solved. It was the front 02 sensor giving a bad signal to my PCM (to much gas) therefore making my PCM making giving a leaner mixture causing all my problems. Thanks guys Justin D.
