Turbo Boost

[gregoryoconnor]

Richard has way good advice here,I would add exhaust leaks???
To not use an rv shop for engine repair is also good advice. I got blasted with
hate emails from CCW supporters when I warned members that CCW was only good for
step repair and Sporlan Valve service. I was wrong with that opinion as members
still have issues with their steps.

(Wide Open Throttle) is important for proper transmission function and the
Cruise Control will work better also. The EGT will likey be elevated if you are
not acheiving full throttle.

dealer...find a guy who can repair a dump truck.
