The pickup can cause that if the advancement plate is allowing the pickup to touch reluctor or there is shavings stuck to the pickup that is shorting the air gap out.

I take help from online websites that have this service like helping in repair some like reliable-store have instant help.. others are a bit slow which I don't prefer... rest is up to u.. U can also get free manuals
When it does this you need to check if you have voltage ( spark ) going to the end of the spark plug wire, but it sound to me like your pick up coil is going bad, pick up coil sit under the distributor cap under the distributor rotor same size as distributor assembly ( black ) cheap$$, good luck, hope this was very helpful.
Do you have spark? Do you have fuel? Which are you missing? TIP.A quick check for spark.........give it a spray of starting fluid....if it runs....you've got spark. No spark usually means......a bad coil or ignition module on the 3.9. No fuel is usually caused by a bad fuel pump.
I copied something that you might use because it was handy I know its not going to be exactly for you but it might get you fixed. Let me know if it helps or NOT please. gl dc
Check with Dodge for a TSB for delayed transmission engagement
I had a problem with the trans going into reverse. I had the Torgue converter replaced, some type of pump in the trans replaced, a complete seal kit and new thrust plates. Seems to work fine so far. I have an 06 dakota 4x4 V8. Luckily all replaced under warranty
