Go pedal question

So i have had my 97 F250 PSD for about 9 months now and i have always wondered about the lag in the "go" pedal (since i can't really call it a gas pedal). whenever i step on it, it will travel for a little bit then click and the engine begins to rev. any way to rid this lag or am i stuck with it?

No problem. That mod is diesigned to eliminate the lg in the pedal before it engages the throttle.
