This is a video description of what my 2001 Dodge Dakota 3.9 V6 automatic is doing. It started to stall a month ago and i thought it was just a fluke. Then it happened once a week, then daily, and not it happens a few times a day. I have read many forums about it, Changed the IAC valve, and Crank position sensor. Checked MAP and TPC and both checked out fine. Other options is fuel pump or filter, though both are in the fuel tank. Havent been able to check cam pos sensor, but i would think that i would be having other problems than this stall issue if some of those other things are going out. Any ideas befor i take it to the shop?
cleaning fuel injectors
This shows how fuel injectors are cleaned on an off-car injector cleaning machine.
The machine energizes the injectors as if they were running on the engine solvent flows through the injectors to remove fuel varnish deposits.

1998 Dodge Dakota v6 3.9L CRaNK SHAFT POSITION SENSOR LOCATION
I just made this quick video to show the location of a 1998 Dodge Dakota CRaNK SHAFT POSITION SENSOR. its a VERY VERY VERY easy part to change. Just remove your passenger side wheel and whatever fender trimming is lining the underside of the wheel well and you have instant access to it. I used a 13mm wrench to get to the bolts.
CAUTION : the one you get from auto part stores (or ebay..where i got mine for only $19..they have plenty!) will require you to use some washers to get the tip of the sensor the right distance from the sensing teeth inside of the transmission housing. I learned the hard way by eating up a couple of sensors. Comment if you have any questions
Dodge Dakota Runs Rough - Need new Dakota Parts Plugged Fuel Injectors 1994
http://f2fb7aea.tubeviral.com - Tipjar site. See how badly the fuel injectors we pulled were plugged on this Dodge Dakota 1994, need new Dodge Dakota parts. The fuel rails apparently rust from the inside. I doesn't take that long to pull a couple injectors and take a peek at the top of the injector. Rust literally poured out when I disconnected the each fuel injector. Injectors #6 and #8 on the passenger side were the ones I had problems with.

iac cleaning
how to clean an idle air control valve.
made for kathy
99 Dodge Ram 1500 5.2 with a bad crank sensor
Had a Dodge R1500, 5.2 come in, no start, when it did finally start it ran rough. I back probed the crank sensor and noticed the signal dropping out and the coil misfiring. After a while it smothed out, I found I could duplicate the condition by wiggling the wires on the crank sensor.
1999 Dodge Ram 1500 all fixed. Here was the problem
I fixed the problem. It was the IAC (Idle Air Controller)
I'm sorry that the video is not more detailed but fixing it is not hard. A few screws and a plug and some common sense on how it all comes apart and is put back together.
I got a lot of emails and comments asking what the problem was so here is a video pointing it out. I hope that it helps you.
How to clean a throttle body and Idle air control valve (iac)
*** PLEASE READ ***
In this video demonstration, I show how to get to, remove, clean, and replace the throttle body and idle air control motor (aka IAC) on a 4.2l ford motor. This procedure is the same for any fuel injected vehicle.
* * * Check out my website krkvideos.com * * *
The vans require removal of alot more stuff just to access the throttle body.
A dirty IAC can cause a rough idle. A dirty throttle body can harm performance and cause rough engine operation.
When the throttle body or iac is removed a new gasket must be used to properly seal the connection to the intake.
GM idle air motors are generally mounted on the throttle body and can be cleaned without removal from the throttle body. This means one less gasket and a lesser chance of creating a vacuum leak.
The ford throttle body had a note on it that said it was not to be cleaned because the coating on the throttle blade might be damaged. Thats fine for a new car but that has to be disregarded when working on something that has some miles on it.

Throttle body - Responsible for regulating flow of air into the engine as you press the gas pedal.
TPS - Throttle position sensor - Tells the computer how far you are opening the blade in the throttle body so it can add more fuel to compensate the added air.

Dodge Shifting Problems
2005 Dodge Cummins. I'm trying to figure out what is making it shift like it is. It will hold the RPM's too high for too long and still gain speed slowly. Once it hits third gear though, it works like it should. Watch the RPM's and the tach. You can hear the motor and the speed goes up really slow until it shifts and then it accelerates like normal.
Just in case ya'll miss my comment, I got it fixed about a week after I made the video. It was the torque converter that fried and took the rest of the internals with it when it went. Took an entire rebuild to fix. I'm not a fan of Dodge's automatic.

Dodge Durango Idle Reving Problem
REPLACED THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR AND IT FIXED THIS PROBLEM!
My 2002 dodge durango v8 4.7L revs up and down at random when idling. It could be sitting there in park idling fine and then all of the suden rev up to about 2000 rpm's without me touching the gas. It does this while stoped at red lights and stop signs aswell. I have to hit the brake quick to avoid hitting the car in front of me. I took it to the place where I bought it to try to get it fixed and they just told me it didnt do it for them so they couldnt fix it. Well I did some research on my own and found out that it might be the THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. So I am going to try getting one and put it in and see if it fixes the problem. I hope so because it's really annoying!
