wierd problem
Ok let me tell you guys what its doing and then what I have replaced.
Sometimes my truck will surge for no reason at low speed or take off. I can press the gas pedal (maybe 1/4 or less) and it will act like its gonna die, then surge a few times then all of the sudden it will take off.
I have replaced the TPS, IAC valve, O2's, Map sensor, crank sensor, coolant temp sensor, IAT sensor (think thats what it is called- air temp), removed and thoroughly cleaned the TB, new plugs, all new fluids in everything. I have not replaced the tranny fluid return filter inside the tranny pan, but will be doing so soon. I have put a pressure tester on the fuel rail and it seems to be holding pressure, I guess I could check it again.
Now comes the wierd part, when it acts up if I turn the truck off and then start it right back up, the problem goes away. I am fairly sure it's electrical, but what the heck could it be? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah no cap or rotors, I have coil overs and they ohm'ed out ok. I have a friend (in Minnesota) who is a Dodge mechanic and he is not even sure what it could be. I am trying to get it diagnosed over the phone with him, but I might be doing something wrong or misunderstanding the process. I was hoping somebody else had been through this and could offer a potential fix, it's driving me crazy and hate taking my vehicles to a shop.
lets try some thing simpile where are u getting ur gas from
2dump 2-4 cans of dry gas down the tank
3 reason why i think this , water in tank ,is on the bottom of tank,turn key
pump on, water first in engine ,then u said it runs after u restart,feedback to
tank mixed gas and water,
drygas alcohol isopropanal will make water burn.
try sunnoco gas very good to my jeep had same happen.
if it is water drop tank and clean or hole could result.
stop buying parts bro go simpile first KISS keep it simpile
