Message:
alright. on my 87 dakota. the other day, it just died on me. it runs til the thermostat opens up, then it starts to die out and sputter and back fire. i let it sit for a couple minutes, then it restarts, then go for a little and dies again. i just rebuilt the carburetor, i replaced the fuel pump last month, its got a new fuel filter too.

any ideas?
