I have a 1972 dodge sportsman camper. Ive replaced the carburator, plugs, wires, fuel pump, fuel filter, rotor, and distributor cap. It starts good and runs ok until u put it in gear and it cuts off and cant figure out what the problem is. Can u help me?

Is the idle high enough? Are you able to keep it running if you try?

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
