well i have a on and off problem with my 94 rt10 with
16000 miles on it.
1 it bogs on some occassions when just pressing the throttle
not putting all the way down. when floared it goes away for
a while or maybe longer.
2 check engine sometimes comes on says o2's shorted to voltaGE,
actually the viper tech says no shorts or o2 problem.
3 sometimes at night the lights flicker dont know if they are
related or just a loose wire on the lights.
4 Have had the fuel system and intakes checked by a race mechanic
and fixed some wires that were crossed but that was all he
could find.
5 tired of bringing my car to dodge and them charging me between
70 -200 dollars to say i cant find it or they try and say they
fixed it and come up short.
6 also have an pulsing idol sometimes with the bogging.
7 could it be i have a bad computer?
8 anyone think of anything? ryan

Like Ray said, how old is your battery? Have you changed your plug wires yet? If they're still the original wires, throw them away and RUN from the trash can. Get some new high-temp wires from JonB. How about re-synchronizing the throttle body cables? Easy, free, 5-minute job and worth a try. I doubt any of these would fix the engine light, but they may cure or help your bogging/surging problem.
