Any advice

It seems like my truck will have good days and bad days. One trip it will build boost quickly and have alot of power the next trip it will dog and struggle to build boost. I replaced the fuel filter and changed the oil about 1000 miles ago. I'm not sure where to start...

Send a message via Yahoo to Dave
Check all your CAC tube boots and see if your air filter needs cleaning

Sounds strange, certainly a lot of variables to consider. I wouldn't know where to begin.

Does it run rough when it is down on power or just feel sluggish. Do you think temperature could be a factor? Maybe EBPV?
