    Dodge Dakota no start
    I have a 2000 Dodge Dakota V-6/ auto trans with 125,000 mi and it
    Will turn over but won't start up. The fuel pump runs with the key on
    And have fuel at the fuel rails. Have good spark at the plugs.
    Where to look for this trouble? ECN or..

    Thanks for any assist

    Ensure that the spark plugs are the same Champion plugs that came in the truck (no cross-referenced plugs) and that they have been recently changed. I'm familiar with several Dodge trucks that would crank but not start, after cross-referenced plugs shortly began breaking down. If the problem persists, focus on the Crankshaft Position Sensor.
