My '92 Dodge Ram D250 with 89,000 miles started to run a little rough last summer (shaking while idling, loss in power).
So in October I did a tune up with the oil change. I replaced fuel, air and breather filters, changed spark plugs, dist. cap dist. rotor and pvc and I cleaned the carburator.
For about a week after that the truck shook really bad and died when idling. During the second week I saw a lot of black smoke and had a huge loss in power and barly made it home one day.
I check the spark plugs and they were black, covered in a soot. I cleaned the plugs and after about 60 miles same thing. Took it to a repair shop and they changed a map sensor but now, after a cuple months, its doing the same thing again. I'm having to clean or change the plugs after 60 miles or so.
Am I looking at major engine repair?
