Hesitation at 2500-3500 rpm?

I'm starting to notice a hesitation when I get to 2500rpm or so.... It acts like it's getting staved for fuel but then it also acts like it's choking. After 3500rpm it seems fine. I've thought about the MAF, plugs, fuel pump, hopefully not the tranny.


Any tips or suggestions would be great.

Is your's a 5-speed? Mine has been doing the same thing, but usually only when it has been sitting for a while, like overnight. I can't figure out what it is so if you find out let me know.

Jonathan, It's an auto.

Elton, That's kind of what I had in mind. I even had a suggestion to do a fuel system flush

I've had the charger for almost 2 years with no issues. I've thought about the supra maf swap, but it's been suggested that you need fuel mods in order to do it.

I took it to auto zone and no codes came up. The guy there has a 4runner and thought it could be the TPS....

I think that if it was a problem it would have happened soon after the charger went on, not almost 2 years later.... they might need a good cleaning, but I don't think they are the issue at hand
