Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light) · Lack/Loss of Power · The engine may be harder to start · The engine may stumble or stall.
This is a common issue with Dakotas of all engine sizes. I have a 99 Dakota and it did the same thing. The usual culprit is the crankshaft position sensor. They are relatively cheap (as far as parts go), and are easy to replace. I would try that first. The interesting thing about them failing is that they rarely set an Engine Failure Code.
Sounds like a timing Issue the spark is not hitting the plugs at the same time the fuel is getting compressed and building up in the manifold which leads to a back fire
neutral safety switch or ignition switch...if dashlites, etc come on when u turn ignition on, prob neutral safety switch...chek brightness of headlights for good all around connections...
What about spark plugs and plug wires on those two cylinders with no spark? This is a v8 engine, you didn't mention the other cylinders? The rotor turns when you crank it?
Maybe I can help. I had a Chrysler Lebarron V8 that quit on me randomly and it turned out to be the coil resistor on the firewall. I started carrying a spare since it happened so often.
just wont turn over and not starting are two different things.
if the engine will not even turn then it has indeed locked and is in engine heaven.
if its turning over and the starter is working in turning the engine over then use a little starter spray fuel in the intake.this test will conferm fuel or ignition problem.
Sounds like a bad battery, or bad/loose connection there. After the battery is replaced, or disconnected, it will need a little bit to relearn how to idle.
