    2000 dodge dakota idling rough
    I have a 2000 dodge dakota r/t. A few months ago I started having problems keeping the truck running right after I started it. Sometimes driving with feet on gas and brake to keep it from stalling. Now, when I start it, have to keep foot on gas for close to 10 minutes,afterwards when it is idling it drops and jumps on rpm gauge. When I stop for a traffic light , it sounds as if it wants to die,gets real quiet. That bothers me cause my truck is quite loud and never used to be that quiet when I was sitting still. Frustrating me beyond belief,hoping it is not fuel pump. Any ideas on anything else it may be? Does this truck have a fuse for the relay. Going nuts here,please help.:confused:

    . Test/replace the Ignition Control Module and coil.

    . Ensure platinum spark plugs have been recently replaced.
