2005 Chevy Silverado 2500 w/ 8.1L throttle sticking
I installed the latest Diablo Tune on a 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500 with the 8.1L gas motor. Odd thing happens...when I press the pedal further than 1/4 throttle, the throttle sticks wide open for about 30 seconds. Wild ride! Any ideas Lew? Haven't tweaked the default yet, just trying to get started.

RE: 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500 w/ 8.1L throttle sticking
Is it definitely tune related? I can think of a bunch of things that could cause this unrelated to the tune.
RE: 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500 w/ 8.1L throttle sticking
Wasn't doing it prior to the tune. When I selected the program, there was no 8.1 under 2005 2500, so I selected the 8.1 under 1500, could that be it? Going to go back to factory and see if it continues.

Damn Mike! Working on the weekend! I appreciate it, and will do as soon as I have a second. It'll probably be this week.

I chose "with ETC" because it is drive by wire.

I have a 03 2500hd with the 8.1 doing the same thing but I have the predator tuner new to using programmers but if you tell me what setting you did a mod to I can probably fix it
