If you have run this vehicle within the proper design parameters, you may simply need a diesel fuel system cleaner.
If you have run red diesel, you will definitely need fuel system cleaner.
If you have turned up the engine, it could be injector pump wear.
If this engine has high miles, it probably needs a valve adjustment.
My bet lies with the fuel system. Try "Power Service" Diesel fuel supplement.
take the wires off
remove the battery
get new battery and put it just like the old one was in.
Easiest job on cars
^^^^it's a DODGE VIPER not a Honda Civic! "Easiest job on cars"....I'm assuming the original author to the first answer has never worked on a DODGE VIPER.....
You have to remove the left rear tire and you can access the battery there
I don't know but I do know that Colby Knutson is the cutest and hottest man around
Yes your truck will not start unless you replace this resistor. You can find the part in any good junk yard or from a good parts store like Napa.
its a crappy vehicle, I'll tell you that. Dont drive it. I know. I have.
The automatic is a 47RE. The manual is a NV4500.
by putting a towel over the top of the power reader and listening to the tempreture valve
take it around one more revolution, TDC is meant to be in the compression stroke and you may be in the exhaust stroke. if that does not help then you may need to remove the distributor and replace it in the right alignment.
Over the years Hemi's have come in all sizes. Currently they are 5.7L and 6.4L.
According to Dodge it is not serviceable.

5-speed is manual with 5 gears +R, 6-spead 6 gears +R
it depends on how you use the truck 5-speed is good the norm diving can tow tralers but 6-speed is not as hard on the moter for towing, if you want to take the boat or sea-dew out otherwise it just means 1 more gear
The NV4500 (5 speed) Has a direct drive in 4th gear and 5th OS an over drive. The NV5600 (6 speed) 5th gear is the direct drive and 6th is the over drive. It is a much heavier trany than the NV4500. The only real bennifit is another gear between 1st and the direct drive that will allow the engine to stay in its power range better. I prefer the 5 speed because I don't pull enough to bennifit from a 6 speed and I'm not training to be an Olympic boat rower. If you are looking for a gearing advantage espesialy at freeway speeds go with the 5 speed and get a Gear Vendor added on to it. That will result in a double over drive, and you can split each gear, best of all it will vastly improve the fule milage.
I would like to add this. The six speed has a HO engine
(high out put). Witch is better for towing, and can handle more of a load for longer time.
I get like 26mpg freeway and 18 in the city drove a five speed and did not like it much keeped looking for sixth gear. Sixth gear I can take down to 35 mph and cruise step the peddle and it take right off like nothing.
take the vin to departmen of moter vehicals drive safe
There are no breaker points in a Dodge vehicle that new. That vehicle has electronic ignition. If the distributor has been changed you must use the spec that corresponds to the vehicle the distributor originally came from. Probably 0.014-0.019 inch.
Please note: the 318 is an engine, not a motor.
This is what I'm going through currently: 1985 Dodge 1/2 ton, 318 V8. Been noticing a leak, looks like down near (above maybe?) the oil filter. Just today, while driving, noticed the oil gauge shows flat zero -- Freaked me out because my Dad bought this truck brand new in 1985, so the last thing I want to do is blow the motor -- so I stopped immediately, checked the oil, and there's plenty. Someone had told me, when it started to leak, it was probably the sending unit, now I'm pretty sure it is because of the zeroed out gauge. Hope this helps.
In PDC, two large relays on the B side, closest to the fender.
One is the fan relay, one is the ASD relay. It may be labeled "engine relay"
