gaps in acceleration
anybody else notice gaps in acceleration. i had a run in with a ricer on the highway today. some civic piece of crap. anyway i ripped him a new one, not once but twice. guess he thought the first beating was a fluke. i pulled off from him pretty good. this is the first time ive ever gotten my truck up near top speed. Lets just say i ran out of numbers on the tach(cleared 120). i noticed that around 105-115 acceleration was slow and then picked up strong again. myabe it was due to the rpms. might have been to low to turn much horsepower. I thought i saw a thread on this a while back but couldnt find it again. does the pcm starve the motor for fuel at these speeds? anybody else notice this?
