1985 Dodge Ramcharger Carburetor

As you can see, this carbureted engine has an electric choke. The cold sets that butterfly on the choke plate and there is a heater coil that warms up and disengages it. IF that electric choke heater burns out, it wont release the choke plate.

Have your battery tested. When the battery has a problem the dodges will act this way.

Sounds like a problem I had with my '85 Dodge D150 Ram Prospector. In my case, the automatic choke was broken and it was starved for air during acceleration because the choke was always closed. It ran fine at idle or very slow acceleration. I wired the choke open and it runs much better, although it is much more difficult to start as the fuel mix is lean due to the extra air. Once it gets warmed up, though, it runs fine. I hear that the barrel carb on mine often has problems.

High idle 2003 dodge ram 1500 changed the TPS it helped a little, reset the ECM that helped a little more. still idles high till it warms up then occasional high idle should i change the IACM?

It is normal for vehicles to idle high until warm up.
First thing I would do is scan the vehicle for codes.
Otherwise you will be changing things until the end of days. It could be a vacuum leak, maf sensor, air filter, spark plug, battery cables/voltage.

I have an 85 Power Ram 50. Has the electronic

If you drive it very little what I would recommend is to install an electric fuel pump. That way after its been sitting all you have to do is turn the key on and the pump will fill the carb.
