2011 6.8L Triton power loss on slow acceration

Just got a new F53 6.8L Triton MH. Less than 1000miles. On a easy acceleration engine will lose power even though accerator if pressed harder. Acts like it has no gas.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
<o></o>
Doesn't happen when doing a faster acceleration or if I maintain constant pressure. Doesn't happen if it is in cruise.<o></o>
<o></o>
Any info would be great before I take it in.<o></o>

tks<o></o>

Is it auto or stick? UHM can you pull the codes? any way it sounds like tps (throttle position sensor) lag. Or O2 sensor/s your truck should have 4 or more check your connectors and wiring after you get the codes out do not clear them if it is still in warranty and they are not there when dealer checks your stf. Could also be converter lock up lag.sticking and that is bitch to fix and expensive, more often then not it's a solenoid. Damn electronic stuff with out "good" code reader or lap top with diagnostic plug and software it is hard to fix 'em.

You might want to ask this in the V10 forum.
