Kyle, I'm sorry to hear you are having this problem. Sounds like you bought a lemon. No worries though, Brother, I'll take one for the team and buy it from you for what you paid for it.
Clutch question??

I'm having this exact problem, thought it was something I was doing wrong and didn't think it was an issue with anything, thank god it's not my driving (since I AM new to stick shift). I was just thinking last night that it's so difficult to shift fast because the rpms aren't dropping off when I clutch in. How does one replace the tps? What is it?
Simple it's on the side of the throttle body
My truck has a ROE TB BTW for those asking
It is the sensor on the side of the throttle body that tells the computer how far the throttle body is opened. Fairly simple to replace but you need to reset it when you replace it, I can't seem to find the thread for it.
There is this procedure:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How To reset idle with an aftermarket Throttle Body:
For all 2004-2006 SRT-10 Ram trucks with a Roe Racing supercharger kit. This procedure must be followed if the battery is ever disconnected or drained to the point of the truck not starting.
1. Disconnect all three PCM connectors for about 10 minutes. By doing this, you are erasing the PCM adaptive memory. The PCM is located on the firewall directly above and behind the passenger side front wheel.
2. Disconnect the TPS (throttle position sensor) on the driver’s side of the throttle body. Ensure all wire connections are correct.
3. Disconnect the IAC (idle air control motor) on the air plenum located on the passenger side directly behind the air filter. Ensure all wire connections are correct.
4. With the PCM disconnected, make sure the throttle cable and throttle linkage is adjusted properly for wide-open throttle. The driver’s floor mat should be removed as it can inhibit accelerator pedal travel.
5. After wide-open throttle is verified or adjusted, reconnect the PCM, TPS and IAC connectors after 10 minutes has elapsed from the start of this procedure.
6. Turn the key to the "on" position, but DO NOT start the engine.
7. With the drivers floor mat out of the truck, slowly press the accelerator to full throttle, then repeat. By doing this, you are showing the TPS (throttle position sensor) full throttle. Without this information in the PCM, it will not correctly calculate how to make the engine run properly.
8. Turn the key off then start the truck without touching the accelerator.
9. Let the engine idle for approximately 2-3 minutes.
10. After idling, drive easy, then progressively harder over the course of about 10-20 minutes.
11. The truck will drive differently during the first 20-40 miles because the PCM is learning the new adaptives.

That's for an aftermarket throttle body though?

Did you change the tps ? Did it fix it?

So should I replace it or recalibrate it?

I've got the truck out of storage and in the garage now:rock:
I'm going to work on it tomorrow. Should I replace the TPS and do this procedure? I checked to see if the throttle was sticking and cleaned the TB then drove it but it didn't help at all.

Any update on this? Did replacing the TPS fix your issue Kyle?
