Default see if you can answer this....

Im getting a slight dead spot right about 25% throttle (according to my edge). From stop, it will go, flatten out till around 28-30% then you can feel the truck kick back in. Its not drastic bit just enough to annoy. If i smash the throttle down as in speeding up to get on the freeway or pass, you dont notice it. Seems right where it does it is right around where the throttle would be cruising on tge highway. No cel, this seems to be the only symptom. Im thinking tps is just worn in that spot?? Whats your opinion? Thanks!!

Try and clean your MAF and see if that takes care of your problem.

Its either a coil on its way out, or a fuel injector. That would be my guesses. It may be time for a tune up as well!

Its getting new plugs and insulators next weekend. At first I was thinking coil as well but it specifically only does it right at 25% throttle. Idles smooth, runs strong.

Damn man, does the catalytic converters rattle at all? I've never seen a 2v loose performance just at 25%! If you do find the problem please keep me updated and I like to harvest information in case someone runs into the same problem, even though I believe this is the only time I've heard of this sort of thing happen! Lucky you hahaha
