I don't know very much about diesels since I've only owned mine a month. I would look in the 7.3 section I'm guessing this thread will be moved there. How many miles are on the truck?

Welcome to FTE.
What is the truck doing? You are saying surging, but I'm not sure what you mean.

it is missing at 1500 to 2000 rpm it pulsates the rpm will drop about 200 rpm then right back i had the issue before and it was the tps, i figured that out by putting on cruise control, when i did that it went away but this time it still does it, it has power you put your foot in it and its fine, right now i'm cleaning the EBPS and tube check the ICP there is oil in connector, thanks
