i drove the dodge today and it wasnt too impressive. it still runs very strong but not anything like it should. i was accelerating up a hill in level 5 and my foot acualy hit the floor! it was pulling strong but to be honest there's been very few times my foot has been floored. before if i was to push it that hard in level 5 it would have been almost scary.

the check engine light is not on so i dont think its throwing any codes. or does the light not always come on?

fuel pressure is fine, between 15 and 20 psi all the time. can the ip be weak? i thought the pump either worked or it didnt, is that wrong?

it's been running like this for a while, and i just blamed it on the cold weather. but it was almost 90 today so i cant blame it on that anymore!:bang

any idea's or tips would be appreciated!:thumbsup

not all codes set off the check engine light, so yes, you could still have codes. Is it possible you have an air leak in the fuel system? maybe a loose filter on the LP.

Very few error codes trip the CHECK ENGINE light.. But is very possible to have codes without the CEL light... So check for error codes...

While your at it and the problem is power you might as well check for proper fuel pressure too...
