Running Sluggish...
Been doing alot of back and forth driving for work. Putting like 350 miles on a week or so, But mainly highway miles...
From a stop, The truck seems to hesitate between 2k and 2800 rpms, And then gets up and goes. It just takes alot more pedal then i ever remember...
Oil Pressure is about 45. Just did a Tune-up...Autolite Plugs @ .50, 8MM wires, High performance Cap and heavy duty rotor, fuel filter. Oil Changed about 2k ago. The plugs i took out were gapped even wider...like almost .6, Should i take the lpugs back out and gap them at like a .4?
No codes, At all. Air Cleaner Is clean, And all connections are tight and sealed...Exhaust is flowing well, and its not the cat (doesnt really exist)
A mustang buddy of mine said it may very well be the tps starting to go, Or "Out of adjustment" and said there is a way to tune it back to 4v at throttle, But i said id look into it, Or have him do it....I dont wanna mess with it.
Would the O2 sensor play a part in any of this? I dont know when or if its ever been replaced.
I just dont see what could cause this...its kinda a pain in the ***.
