Default Lose of power.

So my truck has the 5.2L 318. I mat it to the floor and it does not take off usually you hear the rpms kind of drop for a slight second then speed increases a bit then it shifts and you take off. I was wondering what I was looking at for why my truck is running like this. Is there some type of sensor for the problem im having?

Do a search on TPS or go to FAQ/DIY subforum and get yourself a Haynes Maintenance Manual.

Read this entire thread . https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...um-thread.html

Get a Haynes and download one of these. Between the two, you'll find all the info on how to test all the sensors. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...e-manuals.html

And those look like nice big tires that your 3:55 gears and tranny don't like.

Send for one of these as well. http://www.dodge.com/wccsapp/univers...ull&category=U
