2000 2500 6.0 liter problem
Have a late 2000 2500..new body style with the 6.0 liter motor. Truck starts fine...when you go to take off and motor gets to 2000 rpm it sputters..if I ease into the throttle and feather it I can get it up to speed...however if I get agressive with the throttle its spits and sputters, it pings and generally doesnt sound good. Once I drive it for 10-15 miles and its fully warmed up.... it runs perfect and problem goes away....Shop replaced the O2 sensors and it may have gotten a little better but problem is still there. Would anybody have an idea on what it might be? Before I took it in I was thinking a bad plug or wire?? Im open for suggestions. Thanks.

If it was a bad plug, wire, coil, etc, it usually wouldn't go away once the car's warmed up. May be a faulty Intake Air Temp sensor or Exhaust Gas Recirculation Temp sensor. I heard of a similiar problem with a GMC Jimmy, one of the sensors that detected the engine temp was fault so it had a hard time firing up, but once it warmed up ran fine. may be worth looking into more.
