Hello!
Just bought my son a 99 1500 w/ 5.9L. We've been tinkering with it and noticed the accelerator pedal doesn't seem to have as much travel as we would expect. It doesn't seem to have any real operational limitations.

Is there an adjustment?

Also, I stumbled across a TPS adjustment somewhere on this site and now can't find it. It described adjusting the sensor for maximum voltage. Location of thread?

I appreciate the community and have found a lot of insight on this forum. New to the forum, but not new to Dodge!

Thanks,
Scott

Scott - maybe check the throttle cable routing specifically where it attaches to the throttle body. If the cable itself is not routed around the guides correctly - it will do exactly what you are describing. It will have throttle but it will feel weird and not depress all the way. The TPS and IAC are both on the throttle body. But I would check the cable routing first.
