sounds like the same thing i got happening, cruising at 45 ish and giving it just a tad more gas to speed up a little, the engine sounds/feels like crap kinda like driving a manual and shifting in to 5th gear and trying to climb a hill, if i let up then punch it it'll shift down and take off fine until it shifts up when i start cruising again... it only happens when i'm in overdrive -mostly when going 45-50
well I just took her on a drive o2 out of the pipe and unplugged. SEEMED to be better. rodeway smoother at 55 but was still there soon as tc locked up just under 45. it wasnt as bad as before but was about as bad as when it started.rode a little funny but I'm sure it was from th lack of the o2. also why would this just start out of the blue. one day it just seemed to crap out?so..... ram gods? next step..... new exhaust and o2s?
+1 This is your next step, it should have been your first test/step.
