Try Seafoam available at your local auto parts store. You either have a moisture build up in your fuel system, or a carbon build up in your exhaust system. The Seafoam additive will get the moisture and carbon out yu may also try higher octane gas 89 or 93 for a tank or 2. This is a common problem with the 5.9 and 5.2 V-8 engine go to youtube type Seafoam for video

1997 Dodge Ram van. What relays are on the firewall please?

On a 1997 Dodge Ram Van, the relays that are located on the firewall are likely to include:
  • Fuel pump relay
  • Headlight relay
  • Horn relay
  • AC compressor relay
  • Engine control relay
  • Automatic shut down relay (ASD)
These relays are responsible for controlling various electrical components on the van, such as the fuel pump, headlight, horn, and AC compressor. The specific location of these relays on the firewall may vary depending on the model and trim of the van.
If you are having an issue with one of the relays on the firewall of your 1997 Dodge Ram Van, it is recommended to consult the service manual or a mechanic to determine which relay is causing the problem and how to fix it.

My1992 dodge van stalls when i put it into gear sometimes.

Please check your motor mounts.
A broken, or even a worn motor mount or two can negatively pull on your linkages so that your van will do this.
Understand that if the motor and/or transmission moves loosely, other things can be affected, such as shifting gears and wiring.
God bless your efforts.
