The idle air control valve

I have an 03 dodge ram 1500 3.7 v6 started running rough on the idle and then just died, thought it was the fuel pump, but its not changed out the camshaft and crankcase sensor, still just turns over, puleed up a code p 0505. idle control system malfunction, a buddy said the idle air control valve could need cleaning, the same happened to his 03 dodge, any suggestions

Dodge truck issues with idle

You read the codes so what were they exactly? That is only half of the issue. You can have codes that are showing up because something else failed. There is no code that says "replace injector"

2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7 Engine. Starts fine, Idles fine, but when engine shifts into high gear and RPM lowers engine runs really rough under load

Have you checked for a broken valve spring. Repaired a dodge engine with the same running issue as you have described and it was a broken intake valve spring.

Eng. icon came on idle and runs rough no power

First, have codes read to narrow possible causes. clean Idle air control valve or replace. TPS failure or "dead spots" send wrong signals to ECM. A blocked cat., low fuel or pressure, O2 sensor bad, sparkplug and wires faulty are some of many reasons.

Dodge 98 ram 1500, . got new battery, changed the fuel pump, relay okay, fuse okay.. new idle/air valve new plugs, wires, coil, distributor, cap, got gas in it.. will start, but a few minutes later will...

I would take a look at the plugs and see if they are fouled. You might have a bad fuel pressure regulator. Also, the control module or pick up coil could be bad.
