Jerky on decelleration
Usually when Im in 1st or 2nd gear, and am traveling slowish, and I pull my foot off the gas pedal, the truck will buck/jerk really quick, and it feels like I am putting the brake on, but not.
This is a manual transmission, 22re, etc. What the heck is that all about? It sort of startles me when I don't anticipate it.

My first two trucks did this (4cyl). Once I got my first 3vze (before I knew that I should have taken my truck to the junkyard before putting that stupid engine in) it didn't do it as much. I always assumed it was the engine slowing down faster than the truck, then catching back up to the speed of the truck, then slowing down again, etc. etc. etc. untill the drivetrain and engine can both agree on a speed...

Yeah Mighty Mouse, thats what I thought. The dampener is set correctly from what I can tell, as well as the TPS being set (and its brand new).
Its much more noticeable when I have the AC on. Like I take my foot off, and the compressor just grabs all the residual power from the crank and really slows down the truck.
Ok it sounds like this is a common issue. I've checkd that darn TPS too many times.

But I don't hit the brakes when this happens. It just does it when I release the gas pedal, and it FEELS like I'm slamming the brakes. Are you saying the two are related I guess.
How would I test the brake booster?
/me goes and looks at FSM...

The whole TPS thing is weird to me:
1) My TPS is brand new, and I have it set at .88 mm to go to infinite.
2) I have checked voltages at the ECU, and they are in spec
3) When I disconnect my TPS, the engine smooths out a ton at idle, and drives better. (I know this has something to do with it dumping fuel).
I feel the problem might be related

my tps was set proper as well and did the same thing. Funny thing was it started when i replaced the tps not before. I replaced the old one due to other problems and chasing a motor bug "gremlin". Also check the afm flapper as it might be closing too fast and giving the result of the motor cutting or bogging when the throttle is off.

I have the same issue. if i just take the foot off the throttle it seems to do it. I adjusted my TPS to specs. Havnt touched the throttle dampner. I was wondering it was the deeper gears i have installed. I have 4.88s in and i was thinknig it was engine braking. I am subrscribed to this one.
