Has anyone here tried resetting the throttle pedal in order to gain better throttle response? This simple procedure seems to work with Ram Trucks so I think I will try it tonight and see if it helps with sluggish acceleration from a stop. Seems like I really have to depress the pedal to make it go!
Turn the ignition key on but do not start the truck. Let all the warning lights cycle through until they go off, then slowly depress the throttle to the floor and hold it there for 3~5 seconds, then slowly release it. Turn the ignition off. You are done.
Might be a myth or placebo but what the heck...can't hurt to try, LOL!

According to the Dodge SRT engineers, it is a TOTAL MYTH. Better to just disconnect the battery for twenty minutes if you want to "feel" something different.
