fix the header it says 98 5.7, the 5.7 is a HEMI, it's either a 5.2L or 5.9L...lol

When you put it in gear does it jerk then stall?

sorry ya i think its 5.2. Ya it jerks then stalls. If i restart it it runs smooth for a bit if i give it gas abit it stumbles then stalls. If its in gear and i pull away it stalls or wants to stall if i let off on pedel stightly it dosn`t stall. thanks

i had a problem exactly the way your explaining it with an old 87 chrysler new yorker i mean exactly the same problem. i could never figure it out what it was so i ended up dropping another motor in it. turned out when i was remove the old motor the idle air control valve fell off and that was the entire problem the whole time. just a thought...

I had a similar problem as well with another vehical. I had a broken motor mount that was allowing movement which caused a wire to get grounded out everytime I gave it gas and the motor moved....I was about to give up and set it on fire but at the last minute a friend spotted the problem....
