myarbrough 03-23-2007, 08:16 AM While driving home last night in rush hour traffic I got a dead spot on acceleration. It seems when I push the pedal down it all of the sudden surges. I tried to operated the vehicle in traffic and discovered that below 1500 rpm it felt like the drive was cut. So from idle to 1500 rpm there is a big dead spot where it seems like either the torque converter or trans is not engaging or that the engine is not sensing the throttle?? Please help!!:o: reaper05 03-23-2007, 08:32 AM I'm no expert but change your fuel filter. That helped me. myarbrough 03-23-2007, 12:28 PM The fuel filter has been changed within the last 1,000 miles. btfarm 03-23-2007, 01:08 PM Did you try going back to the stock ecm setting? MGlickLBZ 03-23-2007, 01:09 PM Sounds like a trans problem or the throttle position sensor.

Please help!!:o: Mine does this too even before I went with Edge. See you have a programmer too. A fresh filter sometime helps but with the negative pressure fuel system, sometimes theres not enough there on tap. Its fairly common (search "truck falls on face"). Lift pumps help, but I'm not that annoyed with it yet, but they're on the list of next-to-get. thejdman04 03-24-2007, 06:07 PM The fuel filter has been changed within the last 1,000 miles. Im not saying thats your problem at all but an fyi, it only takes one load of bad fuel, or fuel that has been jsut delivered by a tanker (stir the tank) and hten you pull in to get crud and fill these filters. These new filters filter down pretty fine, an doesnt take much " crud to fill them". myarbrough 03-25-2007, 02:12 PM I am going to replace the fuel filter today........lets see of that helps. blue05duramax 04-07-2007, 03:56 PM mine did the same thing last night need help lly replaced filter and still does it sometimes. Its almost like it runs on four cylinders. Dam thing lost power when i accelerated turned the edge off still the same then all of a sudden it came back and through me in the seat everything fine now. No codes are coming up cheaked wiring harness and injectors all ok. | ||
