    Hi all, so first of all I have a 2018 Tacoma 3.5L with an OVtune in it. The other day the truck had a big time hesitation pulling out into traffic when I hit the gas.(almost felt like a bog down) but eventually after a couple seconds the rpm’s came back up and seemed okay. Did this a couple more times and then the big went away but it still feels low on power and low rpm is strange. I cleaned the MAF, throttle body, and changed all plugs to oem plugs(gapped to manufacture spec .032) I currently have no current or stored engine/trans codes. I will link a video of what is happening. I know it seems minor but I think it will fix the bigger problem. I’m thinking it could possibly be the OVtune but I’m not sure. Any help would be appreciated. Oh and truck is at 65k miles. https://youtube.com/shorts/e5h-wh1Wmwg?feature=share

    Sounds like a prime candidate for the fuel pump recall
