Re: 1990 1500 v6
Start with the basics,
Do you have a good spark out of the distributor? Do you have fuel? When is the last time you change the fuel filter? They can impede the fuel flow enough. It was one of those items I forgot about on mine and it ended up giving me some issues. It may just need a good tune, Cap rotor, plugs wires...etc. Intermittent issues are a pain to isolate.
