Hestitaion With Throttle

(2000 F-350, 7.3L, 205k miles) Over this weekend, I noticed while driving mostly in the lower gears, that there was a slight hesitation with the throttle pedal depressed about half way or less. Seem to get worse as the day went by, but no lights or anything came on. Changed the fuel filter and added a fuel injection cleaner to the tank. Checked the oil and it was low, so I filled it to the correct amount. Drove it around the next day, and it seemed to be good, until it warmed up some, and continued to hesitate. The hesitation seems as if it's not getting constant fuel, and the truck jerks a little. Once you get up to over 2000 rpms, it goes away.


Looking up other reviews on similar issues, most have pointed to the throttle pedal sensor and just changed out the pedal assembly. Before I take it that far, I wanted to see if anyone had similar issues, and what was the corrective action.

Sounds like an IPR issue(normaly the O rings give out) as that to causes problems when the engine is warm.
Try to live data the vitals of the icp and ipr.

throttle position sensor

Blow tps out with air. If that is the problem it should help clear up the problem for a while. I bought OEM part from thepartsguyed for less than $80.00 online.
