I'm going to second on replacing your fuel filters. I know several ppl that had the same issue and a quick fuel filter swap out fixed em up.

Yea, its your gas pedal. i had this problem on a customer's truck, ford sells the gas pedal assembly with the electronic actuator that its connected to and everything. replace that it seemed to fix the problem.

Stay away from the Ford stealership....they'll ask roughly $300 for the entire assembly and you can get one from Advance and places like that for around $50(for just the TPS).

I would try the filter again before the TPS...todays fuel is total crap.

In case you have to replace the TPS...I snagged this for you off of another site....its the PN for the sensor at Advance

ACC PEDAL POS SENSOR DO 20705180
