I have a 99 Dodge Dakota. The motor that was put in it has 9k miles. I turn the key it starts up great and will sit there and idle forever no problems. The minute i give her gas it stalls. it has a hi performance fuel pump in it. and all the lines are new. Any suggustions on what might be the problem.

Thanks,

Hey erik
Any other modifications done? Motor was a direct "drop in" or you had to "tweek" some things?

Well, lets first figure out what your loosing when it stalls. I'm gonna assume all your wiring and whatnot was not modified ...... so ...... do your best to keep it running and try to see if your loosing spark or fuel when it crashes. Let me know!
