Default Hesitation

Anyone ever had problems with hesitation when starting to accelerate slowly? I have a 2005 f-150 with exhaust and sct chip. It hesitates with or with out the chip installed. It happens most of the time around 30-40 mph while in over drive and then I start to roll it on slowly. Does anyones truck do the same thing?

my f150, was giving me trans problems by "hesitating" from a stop to very low speeds while in first gear. if i started off really slowly i found i would feel my trucks trasmission slam the cluch together - took to ford and they said they needed to grease something and replace something else...can't remember this was a couple years ago.

Any time you have hesitation try to recalibate the TPS. It's free!
Engine off put key in and turn to the ON position but don't try to start the engine.
Press gas pedal to the floor slowly and then release quickly.
Turn key to off position.
Now do this two more times, also wait for the chimes to stop before pressing the gas pedal.
Now start truck and go for a test ride and see if it's fixed, if not try something else.
Like I said it's free and it's fixed a bunch a trucks so far.
