Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Engine stalls at stops??

Well here I go, driving down the road and at certain positions on the go pedal the truck sputters. It is amplified with the comp on, and wire is not tapped right now. When I just peg the peddal all is fine... ... ... . no miss just go go go. So am I on the coruse looking at the APPS? This is what I have done.



1. Try to reset the APPS, big deal, same ole same ole.

2. Sent my VP back to my pal Brady at Industrial Injection to have it looked at.

3. Cleaned IAT and MAP sensor.

4. Sent my Comp back to Edge and recieved a new one.

5. Ran truck with no comp at all hooked up. (that sucked not have a boost fooler)

6. Checked all connections... ... ... ..... everything looks fine and clean, applied fresh electric crap to all the connections again.

7. No Codes set or stored

8. Injectors are 3 months old, so I would not think they could be a prob.



I have plenty of fuel flowing 15. 5psi and doesn't miss a beat. Fresh VP that I just put back in yesterday, hense no wire tap. But like I said there is a shudder rolling into the go pedal around 2000rpm+, but pin it to the floor and bye bye, purrs like a lion.

So here is what I did, hooked up some gizmo thing that will read quote "TPS" on the face and spit out numbers while truck is running. So in netrual truck idles smooth at 860 warm 900 cold. Start pushing the pedal in slowly and when the rpm hits 2000 to 2200 shakes like a dead slug. Then clears up a sec while continuing to 3000rpm, shakes a couple of times more and then hits the max 3500rpm. The gizmo box shows my "TPS" starts out at 0 then 2 then 13 back to 6 then flickers everywhere, hits 30 then right to 70 back all over the place then to 99 when pedal is on the floor. Now the scanner I use to use, would show a smooth numeral increase, not erattic like this one does. I don't have access to the one I use to use anymore... ... ... . so this is all I have for right now. I really don't trust it but I really have a miss with the pedal movement. Other than that at crusing speed all is good. I have not looked at the cam sensor... ... ... ... . could that be? I am just sticking my nose out here looking for some ideas before I become so frustrated and throw on a P-pump... ... ... . although thats another can of worms I am not ready for, been there seen it, working it, and it is not for me right now. Think I would rather buy a 12V and just put it in my truck... ... ... ... ... . lol.
 
mine was doing the same,,it took like 2 weeks before it set a code,It was the Apps, make sure ,they are about $375. there was a thread here, someone took the senser off the back ,cleaned it and re-calibrated the Appa and said it worked fine.
 
you watch my thread "gov surge", and Ill watch yours. My problem is similar to yours, but only at high, no load rpm, which seams to be about 65-70% throttle position. I need to drive mine more and replicate the problem more, though... .
