I'm going to go on record here as the 2nd guy who has doubts about this alleged 'recalibration'. I'm going to actually agree with Steve83 (always a first time )

I just logged these inputs. Before and after, there were no changes in any of the related values at all - suggesting that no data points were modified within the PCM either.

You folks need to read this: http://articles.d-tips.com/art8.html

And then you'll understand why this is not going to benefit a ETC vehicle - the PCM is already doing this sanity check - and redundantly. (There are actually THREE APPS sensors ( on the pedal) and the TPS device mounted on the TB).

Finally - I did my own 'blind taste test' with my neighbour - new Siverado - (and a bona-fide POS - sorry, TMC, lol). I showed him the procedure and offered to do it for him. When I was done (and I did not actually perform any of the steps) he was astounded by the change in throttle response. And - he was resoundingly pissed when I revealed the truth - cost me a few placating brewskies, that did, lol.

This goes a long way in explaining why my GP hands out calcium pills to cure all manner of patients' afflictions - the Placebo Effect is a powerful tool.

Sorry to be the 'mythbuster' here.

BTW - y'all DO know that the source of this info -F150Forum - is also the source for Shotgunz' best humour, right?

Y'all will get a bigger hit by just disconnecting the battery and do a KAM reset - clearing Adaptive is always good for some added 'git-me-up' (while it lasts).

Don't get bent fellas - just offering a different perspective - and some impartial data & observations.

I'm not arguing whether this is legit or not. Im arguing against those who were so fast to jump on peoples' cases saying it was voodoo when there were people who have tried it and felt an improvement. Fact of the matter... it costs nothing to do, try it for yourself before you jump to conclusions and start belittling people simply because you feel you are smarter than others. As Bluejay already stated, if your truck had issues after trying this it wasnt due to this, especially if you had issues after trying this with a throttle cable driven truck. There's no way pushing your gas pedal down a few times could possibly screw up your engine.

MGDfan, thank you! Someone actually took some time to check this out for himself and did a bit of research before going on a rant!

F150forum.com gets made fun of on here, but in all honesty there are far less egotistic self righteous ****** over there. I enjoy the info here, but rarely post due to that one reason.
