started right up this morning,then died,no restart,checked spark,none!!,over the years of owning this truck ive come to discover its USUALLY the crank sensor,and the one in there now is less than 6 months old,so i did a ohm test on the one i replaced last fall,it showed bad,so i ordered a aftermarket one to replace the mopar one i put in last fall,its lots cheaper than oem and has a 36 month warranty,if this dont fix it then DUH!!!,im running out of ammo for the parts cannon,and money also!

Have you considered the PCM may be bad?

i got the crank sensor out this morning,.its a mopar part about 6 months old,according to my factory service manual it tests bad,so im going aftermarket this time,about half the price and might be made in the same mexican factory,or not!!

I have nothing to add. Just wanted to say you have more patience than me! By this time, one of three things would have happened had this been mine. 1) taken it to a shop 2) called auto recyclers to pick it up 3) drug out back and set on fire. work

Thanks for keeping us posted.

That's what happened to the wife's '93 Ramcharger, couldn't get it fixed, set it out front until somebody came by and wanted it.

put in the standard motor parts sensor this afternoon,it checked ok,and the old dakota runs good,the main reason i kept after getting it fixed is because ive owned it for 24 yrs ,it does ok on gas and its like a old friend,plus being a v6 with a 391 sure grip 2wd ive hauled and pulled more than you would ever believe,such as a 92 clubcab cummins from east texas to east kansas,i was grossing right at 12,000 # on that trip!!!
if i have more problems ill holler back!

If you paid by card, and have an idea when you bought it, they may be able to find record of your purchase.

Needs a fresh set of eyes. I'd take it to a shop you can trust.

How to pull codes on obd1. This video shows how, and ...........





He relies on the factory tach too much. Mine is all over the place and runs fine. He seems to focus on the cps, but briefly mentioned a possible bad speed sensor as well?
