flooding? acting odd
Just bought a Pickup. '96 Dodge Dakota, 4cyl, 5 speed.
It has very low gas efficiency. It idles funny and has stalled out (once). It has no real power in 5th gear. At times, I cannot start out in 1st gear as it stales regardless of how carefully I accelerate. I wait 5 min +/- and it seems fine. I seems to be flooding, but I'm not sure. Help me!!! Phil

Re: flooding? acting odd
first thing to check is the fuel pressure; should be around 49 PSI.

Re: flooding? acting odd
like freak sais check fuel psi. i would check vaccum hoses and you can do this with carb cleaner go to all hoses you see and litely on each hose and if it idles high you have a leak there is some people will tell you it will eat the hose up but this is what i do all the time. also did you give it a tune up? another thing it might be your timing you may want to check that also.
