i have a 1998 dakota with 102,000 miles on it. i bought it at 80,000 and i have had it about 1 1/2 years. the last couple of weeks i go to start it and it starts but stalls right out. then when i get it started sometimes i will drive and then when i don't accelerate it will stall. Then sometimes it will go to stall and it like jumps and jerks and then stays running. it don't do this all the time but its getting to me. plugs, wires, o2 sensors are new. i don't know what to look for and kinda want to do it myself. the engine light is not on or anything. and it has alil rough idle. if anyone wants to call me direct you can at 724-714-2892 i live in new castle, pa for the time zone. any ideas. i was told maybe the coil. but then someone said if the coil is going bad it wont run at all.
