How can I accelerate with no throttle in my truck?

New issue that’s just come up in my truck. Driving along at about 40-50mph and I go to accelerate and a get a shuttering/bogging down of the engine and have no real throttle. If I gently press down on the petal I can accelerate, but the moment I try and step on it I get the symptoms described above.

Why is my GM Truck bogging down on hard acceleration?

If your not using delco plugs in this motor that can be a big contributor to your problem. GM vortec engines hate anything but vortec plugs and will do all kinds of weird things. And yes a clogged converter could cause this sort of thing to happen. Are the O2 codes upstream or downstream?

Can a car stall with a bad throttle position sensor?

The engine can stall for no reason and without any warning. This happens when the TPS gives incorrect information to the ECM. The engine can stall at high speed, at low speed, or even at idle. A faulty throttle position sensor will not let your car accelerate normally. Though this doesn’t happen all the time.
