I have noticed it does it shortly after I gas the truck up or take the fuel cap off and then reinstall the cap.. I need help this is my daily drive.. I have replace the pickup in distributor, cap and rotor, and camshaft position sensor. any help will be greatly appreciated..

no codes. just stalls and then it will turn over but wont start. unplug all three plugs to the computer and then plug it back up it will start up.. its also hard to start all the time..

You might check the fuel pressure to be sure the fuel pump is working.
Here's some info,

How about a re-boot?
Disconnect the battery for 20 minutes, re-connect, turn the keyswitch On, slowly mash the throttle to the floor then slowly release.
Turn the keyswitch Off.
Now try to start the engine.

Re: 02 ram stalls shortly after fuel cap is opened

I will try that tomorrow. I tried cranking it today and it threw p0351 which is the coil, replaced and still nothing.. code just comes back after I erase.. I read somewhere that same code could be a bad computer. is that true? I got half the plugs changed before a storm blew up.

Re: 02 ram stalls shortly after fuel cap is opened

This is all I can see in the '01 FSM with a P0351,

P0351 Ignition Coil # 1 Primary Circuit.
Peak primary circuit current not achieved with maximum dwell time.

Without engaging the starter, turn the keyswitch On, Off,On, Off,On then look at your odometer for codes.

Re: 02 ram stalls shortly after fuel cap is opened

From the 2001 FSM,
SPECIFICATIONS - FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE -
GAS ENGINES
All Gasoline Powered Engines: (49.2 psi + or - 5 psi)

Does the fuel pressure stay in range while you're trying to start the engine?

Re: 02 ram stalls shortly after fuel cap is opened

yes the fuel pressure stays at 42-43 psi. they disconnect battery wait 20 minutes connect battery turn switch on slowly press the gas pedal to floor and then turn off key did nothing.. replace all plugs coil and wires. disconnected computer and blew it out the best I could.. it started 2 times.. left it running came inside and it shut off on its own and now will not start..
