  3. 3.9L V6 Specific Topics
    I just put my truck on the road and it's not running right. It's fine for the first 4-5 blocks after that it starts to run really rough, then the idle goes low and when you hit the gas it goes even lower instead of improving. The check engine light is on now and it wasn't until this started...

    My problem is this it was running fine then it started to act like it was losing gas it would buck and back fire I would have to play the throttle to keep it going and if I found the sweet spot on the throttle it would keep running fine. Then it died the other day as I was backing into the...

    I know, there are millions of threads about the MPG of a 3.9l Dakota being not that great. But why am I seeing such low numbers? I get maybe 220 miles to a tank of gas, on a 22 gallon tank. I've done a tune-up, tires are brand new and aired up, changed the plugs, cleaned the filter, all the...

  10. Intake & Exhaust
    Just testing the waters wondering what everyone's opinion is on a CAI for a 2002 Dakota with the 3.9l Magnum? I know K&N is an obvious name but I have been searching for hours and can't find a CAI for my Dakota from them.
  11. Intake & Exhaust
    Ok. my first questions are pretty simple. Will the K&N 57 Series fit onto 1994 3.9L Dakota? Will it require any major modifications to either the truck or kit? And is it an actual intake kit or just the K&N filter? The last question is bothering me the most, I can't find any pictures or...
