I have a dodge ram 1500 5.7 liter, the throttle is very, very sticky and touchy. Everytime I step on the gas my tires spinout. Just kind of wondering what I can do to repair it?

Hi Amber, yes there is. clean your throttlebore with carb cleaner. replace the return spring on the accelarator. with a less erratic spring. but get the throttle bore cleaned first as this may be just carbon build up on the throttle plates.. good luck billymac
