No need to start a new thread every 20 mins about this.

Start by giving us some info on the vehicle like mileage, last service done, when did it start happening, etc.....

If you have an OBDII scan tool that reads live data. Look up your throttle percentage. In park feather the gas and see what opening percentage you get.
