Dodge 360 engine with 70,000 when startup from warm you drive it for 1 minute then it feels like it's starving for gas for about 20 to 30 seconds and then clears up. Doesn't do it from cold start and never misses a beat after this problem.

Asked by drumlinebus Feb 12, 2007 at 06:10 PM about the 1999 Dodge RAM Van

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

It is fully tuned up. Does not do this from a cold start in the morning. I thought it might be the coil but it does not seem electical. If you shut it off and start it again when it does this the problem goes away. Is it possible there is a sensor that is not working properly?

Hello, There are a few possible causes. You could have a loose cable, a weak battery, a worn fuel injection system, or a sticking thermostat. You may need to visit a mechanic to diagnose this problem absolutely. Best of luck! CarGrrl
