stutter step
Hey guys. I have a question about the my truck. First of all have any of ya'll had this prob...when I accelerate lightly or just cruizing and have to give her a little go pedal she bucks/stutters a bit. If I give her a bit more go pedal it stops. If I just romp on it and lay her to the floor I have plenty of power. The stuttering only appears under light pressure on the go pedal. I took a buddy of mine to a diesel performance shop to pick up is truck and asked the mechanic what's up with mine. He seems to think its the pedal throttle position sensor. Which for those that do or don't know what this is, it's on the top part of the go pedal and has an oval plug on it. I can't find one at any of the parts houses and the stealership wants $770.50 for it. OUCH!! 
Ford only sells this part as the pedal assembly with both sensors on it, the other one is the idle sensor. Does anyone know where to get one any cheaper? Or what else my options are.
