Message:
I just did a 3.9 to 5.2 Engine swap on my 1997 dodge dakota the engine came out of a 1997 ram. When i start the truck it idels fine but when i go to give it gas it stumbels a little until it reaches right around 2.5 to 3000 rpm. The check engine light isnt on and there are no other signs of anything. Do i just need to drive it a little and see if it goes away or does it sound like something needs to be replaced.

Check all fuel and spark for it. May need a tune up or you might have a bad fuel pump/cat-converter??
