I just got back home from a trip through New England with my 2003 HO with 48RE pulling a 33 foot trailer. Three things happened that I don't understand.
1. When I first started the engine in the morning the throttle was dead - pushed to floor and nothing happened. After a minute or so it was okay. This has happened 8 or 10 times.
2. When pulling up a hill, overdrive off at about 2700 rpm, the rpm would go to 3200 and then return to 2700 again.
3. When pulling up a hill at full throttle it would start jumping so bad I had to let off the throttle. This happened twice. I had some trouble with this on my '95 also before they reflashed the computer.
I love the truck. It is quiet, rides great looks good. Mileage is 10-11 when pulling the trailer and around 18 empty. My '95 was 11-12 when pulling the trailer and 21 empty. It has a little more power then the "adjusted" '95.
