I have taken my 98 ford f-250 into a engine and a tranny shop neither can figure out why my truck surges when I am driving on the highway or when I am generally going over 35 mph and try to speed up. it surges when I try to speed up. I have replaced the mass airflow sensor the intake air temperature sensor and the idle air control valve. I have ran out of ideas. oh yea I have hooked it up to the computer you caqn get at shucks and nothing comes up. and I just had the tranny serviced also PLEASE HELP THANKS

have you checked the fuel pressure? how about a new fuel filter?
