    Hello all,

    My truck decelerates while driving and in order for me to pick up speed, I have to release the gas pedal and pump it again in order for it to pick up speed. It only started and now it’s becoming more frequent.

    Upon starting the vehicle leaving it idle, it is fine. I have no warning/check engine lights lit.

    help

    Hello all,

    I realized it was a loose break pedal. I tighten the bolt for the pedal and now the truck runs perfectly. I think as I was driving the breaks were engaging causing a deceleration to my truck.
