seriously my 01 does the same thing if the computer reads 0 speed then it will defuel I think at like 10psi but if you let it move a bit you can fool it and you will be able to burn em off.

I found a great video of someone having that same problem with their Dodge on YouTube, wish I could post it but its got quite a bit of bad language, anyway, the guy keeps trying to do a burnout but it just keeps defueling on him, so he resorts to putting it on reverse, getting some reverse speed, then throwing it in drive and smashing the throttle. LOL. I can just imagine what his transmission was going through. If anyone wants to see the vid send me a PM its pretty funny.
