    Well truck is on the road again and got auto tranny shifting decent now however my peddle feels dead and its an on and off thing. At WOT it feels great and runs strong. Put new MSD wires and oem champion plugs gaped at 35, tried 3 different TPS sensors. Truck isnt throwing any CEL while on my tune and on stock tune only throws o2 sensor and evap crap. Any thoughts?

    Gas pedal. If you try to drive it normal itll sputter, pop, backfire and not want to run that great. You can give it like 1/4 throttle and itll feel like its gonna die and not go and then seconds later the truck jams and feels like you just floored it. But if you do just floor it the truck revs up and drives great.....Sounds like TPS problem but we tried a few and didnt make any difference so then i figure maybe a timing or spark issue and so we changed plugs and wires and even injectors and same results....

    check the throttle cable at the throttle body. My cable slipped off of the camber/cam when i was cleaning my engine one time. Kinda had the same problem.

    Yea looked at that its fine. We tested TPS its getting good reading too....Is there suppose to be some type of Accelerator pedal position like the hemis? Checked my michelle/ondemand acct and seems like its saying there is a module under the battery?

    Recheck firing order. Make sure firing order is correct! Sounds like maybe a wet connection somewhere! Did the underhood get wet ?

    Accually emailed Todd With AC Performance to see when he is available to tune. But my truck wont even run good on a stock tune. Im using SRT2SLOW PCM and SCT handheld with his tune and we have the same setup basiclly and doesnt want to run good on his tune neither
