Surging, ICP ?

Working on a 2006 6.0L has 120k on it having some trouble on surging, not getting any codes. When driving just feel lack of power and sputtering/ surging. From what i've read i'm looking towards the icp? what is the ICP? and what do you guys think? The problem occurs the worst in the morning and seems to do it less frequntly throughout the work day, but I can notice it at idle as well.

Isn't this a common idea of a bad FICM?

Could be FICM

But more commonly an ICP or EBPIssue per your Year

So unplug ICP sensor and drive it see if surge goes away

if not unplug EBP sensor and try that


You need some gauges a ScanGaugeII or the like to read live data

Could also be a dirty EGR valve.
