Hi there everyone. I'm in need of help desparately!!!!! I have a 92 ram with a 318 magnum. Quite some time ago it jumped time. I got it all tore apart and it was lined up, however there was escessive slack in the chain so I replaced it all. Got it all back together and it fired right up. The motor ran great until you put it in drive and took off, nice and smoth all the way up to the rev limiter when in park, but rins like crap in drive when under load. It was like it was running on 4 cylinders. It never did this before. All I did was replace the timing set. Well then while driving it around the neighborhood it went POP BANG POP and stopped dead in it's tracks, just like it did when it died before when I replaced the timing set. I got it back home and checked the timing and it's fine. I turned the ignition on and cranked it with a remote while having a timing light hooked up. No light. So I check to see if the coil is getting power and it's not. Power comes from the injector wiring and gets it's ground signal from the computer. The injectors are getting power but still nothing with the coil. So I figure its the computer. Yay, maybe a new computer will also help with my key problems too I thought (alot of times the truck will not shut off using the key, I have to pull the coil wire, it will start every time though). So I got another computer and still nothing. what in the world could this be. Please Help!!!!

Are you sure the timing isn't 180* off?
