probably with the amout of miles on the old injectors now. imo it would be better in the long run to just buy the whole setup than just nozzles.

When you said you had dead pedal did you mean LITERALLY dead as in NOTHING happens for a second (no power no throttle up) and then you get power?

no it'll throttle up but wont go anywhere very fast it takes almost 5 minutes to go 20 when floored and when it shifts to second it slams into gear. sometimes it'll rev up and get full power and i dont know whats causing it

From what your sayin it almost sounds like your trannys about had it. If your still gettin instant throttle response that is.

its not instant its a gradual response. thought it was the tps but chip reads 100% on that. i was told its probably the electronics on the vp and its starting to get tired

Well bud i was told that my ecm could be dyin on my 99 since iv got codes that come and go when they please. But my truck either has full power or it wont start. But im most definitely not the most knowledgeable guy on here but if your truck slams into second gear that sounds like tranny trouble on the horizon imo.
