no response when I push on the throttle

I have noticed in the past couple days that my throttle has at times stopped responding. I have a 2000 F250 6 spd, it started when I would shift from 2nd to 3rd, but as time has gone on it is stalling in 1st thru 3rd all the time now. Sometimes it takes around 3 to 5 seconds pumping the pedal before I can get any response. I was wandering if anyone is familiar with this problem as I need to fix it asap. Thanks in advance to all the guys at FTE!

First thing I would check is the throttle position sensor which is attached to your gas pedal.

I replaced my accelerator pedel At about 165'000 on my 2000 X. Ordered parts from Ed the parts guy, FYI. It takes about 10 minutes to r & r it.

I sold a sensor and here is the customers response.


Hi. I finally had time to work on the sensor and even the replacement look the same at first look, this is different sensor.
What I was able to read on old one it is
BAJF20A
I will have to send your senor back for refund, but do you have the correct one?
I also need return address.
thanks Kris
