Engine Performance problem
Dodge Ram V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 110000 miles
My 2000 Ram 3500 is a van conversion. Yesterday the engine light came on. I bought this vehicle used and don't have a service manual. Van still seems to run OK, all gauges normal--had it serviced by a Dodge dealer about 1000 miles ago.
When I start the van cold, the engine will rev up and down until it warms up some, then the rpm's will stabilize. This problem is worse when the weather is cold
I noticed yesterday that, when idling, the van moves jerkily (not smoothly) in either drive or reverse. It had not done that previously.
Thanks in advance or any help
