Hey,
First off, I'm a long time creeper in this forum. The 92 page GreasyTshirt thread has fixed a few issues for me. So thanks for the past fixes. I am a career auto mechanic (regular cars, not diesel trucks) who became a facilities tech for a company that has a 2006 Hino 268 that is used to make runs between 2 buildings. Today the truck completely lost throttle response on the last run of the day. Everything is fine in park, if I step on the pedal it revs right up no problem. Once in gear I can floor it and it will not go above 1,000 RPM. It doesn't sputter and miss, it's just like I'm not stepping on the pedal. I'll probably have to get it towed to the dealer in the morning, but I figured I'd see if anybody had something for me to check before I do. Thanks in advance for any advice, and more importantly one more big thank you for all of the previous fixes this forum has handled before I needed to sign up.
