Re: [Amc-list] Anyone Around Charlottesville VA know anything about96Dodge Truck with 3.9 V6?

["jerijan baldwin" <jerijan@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings,
Nay, no tach.  Just a run of the mill Dodge 1500 Ram with some mystery
illness.
ECU is my best guess, but dealer says they cannot 'bench test' it.  (I don't
think that's true..or ought not be..but, *Oh, well*)

Does the dealer have an ecu test procedure?
Maybe they can bench test it?
  Does it have a tach in the truck or do you have a true scanner?
Sometimes with these symptoms I've seen clues by looking at things like rpm.
say for intance you open the throttle and the rpm drops to zero, that's a
false reading that leads me to suspect a faulty ecu.
