I have a 2003 Dodge Ram. I have changed so many sensors and the problem still exists. It hesitates, backfires, wants to stall. Some say change the computer. I am just at a loss and do not want to spend any more money.
Thanks!

WHat sensors have been replaced? Has the check engine light come on? Have you checked fuel pump pressure and for vacuum leaks? Catylatic converter?

The sensors were - Camshaft pos, Throttle pos, MAP. After normal idle truck bucks and backfires. Restart engine promblem resolved then returns. Engine light is on from time to time. Yes, checked all of those.
