I have a 2000 Dodge Ram diesel. It runs slow, though it usually gets up to speed. It is slower cold than warm. That is to say, the vehicle accelerates very slowly. Prior to getting the truck from a friend, he had the fuel pump replaced. He was told that it needed injectors. One thing that concerns me is if I park on a hill/rise, shut it off, leave it in gear with the brake off, it will slowly roll down hill, kinda lugging like motors do when you are trying to bump start. Because I get that bumping motion, I do not think it is the clutch. If I have the brake on or brace it against something and let the clutch out it will stall, as it should. It is not burning oil though it leaks pretty good. Normally, I would think it was blowing by the rings but I am curious if the injectors need replacing, as suggested, can it be blowing by the injectors? When I downshift, I get slightly less than the normal amount of resistance but there is significant resistance. Thanks for your thoughts.
