Re:Fuel & Oil Filter changes

I would strongly advise to replace the rubber fuel lines (short 12 to 18 inch section) one is 3/8 inch and the other is 5/16 inch ID. They can allow air to enter the fuel system, and sometimes you will not even get a fuel leak. Thay dry out nd crack, just enough to let air in, but not fuel out.

I noticed a big improvement in performance by removing the cat. Mine was plugged pretty good.

Check or replace your overflow valve, check the clamps on your turbo, intercooler, and related ductwork. Also look around for ANY fuel leaks in the system.

It should not have any trouble pulling a couple (or 10) sleds. Hope this helps, Kevin
