[QUOTE="JohnnyV, post: 1674475, member: 512311"] normal? What's the problem? Lately, I've been having problems with my vehicle. When I start the truck up, I have to give it a 15 minute warm-up in order for the truck to run properly. If I give it 5 minutes to warm up and start driving, the truck will stall out and will have a hard time starting for a little bit until it finally kicks over around the fifth or sixth time and everything is back to normal. Even when I turn it off on purpose and start it up again to see what would happen, the truck has no problems. Before it stalls out, it seems like I'm losing acceleration, or the gas will cut out and hesitate, and then it will stall. I've changed the oil, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, even sprayed the carburetor (or fuel injection). The battery is still good. After a 15 minute warm-up, I have no problems going anywhere, it's only when I start the truck up for the day, put it in gear and it will stall out (and this has even occured on warmer days when it's above 60 to 70 degrees outside). What could be the problem? I have a 1992 Dodge Dakota with a 5.2 liter, V8, 318 engine (not the Magnum series engine). David [/QUOTE]
