Can you keep the vehicle running if you keep the accelerator pedal depressed?
Do you have an engine check warning light illuminated?
Is there oil in the engine?
Assuming the oil level is fine and you have no check engine light illuminated, then I would suggest checking the following in this order:
1) Throttle body and idle control valve. Clean these thoroughly and rebuild.
2) O2 sensor in the exhaust. A poor reading can result in poor mixture control. You may also suffer poor gas mileage if this is at fault.
3) Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve possibly faulty.
SOURCE: Engine turns over but wont start
Check the cam sensor and crankshaft sensor. If either of these are defective the engine will not start or may start intermittenly.
SOURCE: i have a 2000 dodge durango 360 that once it runs loses oil press
if there is no knocking noise then replace the oil sending switch this should fix your problem let me know
SOURCE: 4.7 liter oil pressure gauge malfunctioning.
Check or replace the oil pressure sending unit.
SOURCE: Come to stop 99 Ram oil pressure drops to 0 check gauges light.
Change the oil! The 318Cu in V8 (5.2 liter) engine has a problem with sludge build up on the oil pump pickup tube screen. This engine requires oil changes at or before 3500 miles with a high detergent oil.
SOURCE: 2004 dodge ram 4.7 no oil pressure reading until you turn it off
The oil pump either works or it doesn't, so it's not the problem. Check the wire connection at the pressure sending unit. The wire may be broken at the connector, or you may need to replace the sending unit.
