my dad has a 98 3500 and driving around it acts like your foot slips off the go pedal but your foot never moves??? any ideas it got a new pump 40,000-50,000 miles ago its got a van akin chip too i guess that's french for a BD? ha-ha
2wd 5speed had the ecm recall done in 99


Thanks

 

I would scan for codes. "Could" be the APPS or it could be the injector pump or something else - either of which should have thrown a code if there is in fact a problem here.

 

Or the (TPS) throttle position sensor

 

could you elaborate?

iam a 1st gen guy so you lost me

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

can this be checked by the code reading or some other way?
and by having a TPS dose that mean its full electric throttle and not a linkage/cable set up?

well the phone just rang he had it read and the reader says TPS where is it and whats required to change it
