My 1994 Dodge Ram 1500 has an issue. I think it may be fuel related but I thought I would ask. When I first drive it drives fine. About 5 kms in it feels like it's choking and I lose speed dramitically until I can go no faster then 30-40km. It also stalled out once when it came to a red light. It also started losing power a week ago at night when slowing for a light. Is it fuel pump/Filter? Filter in tank or on frame rail? I think tank because I can't find it. Thank you

The fuel pump and filter are in the fuel tank. Before removing it, go to our home page to the DIY section. Locate the "How to check fuel pressure" section and follow the directions / video. Make sure the pump is the problem because it isn't a fun or cheap thing to replace. If that checks out good, check to make sure the catalytic converter isn't plugging.
