Well ive got the water out of the tank and put fresh gas in.it. Took it for a ride and no change. Its misfires only on a load. In other words its only when im trying to accelerate quickly when im heavy on the pedal. Do you think im due for a timing belt and tensioner swap?

Well i thought that is was a fuel problem so i took it to a shop and asked to check the fuel pressure. I have like no money so thats all they did. They said it was riht where it needed to be. It was the dodge dealer here in town... I trust they would be right being a dealer and all.
