Re:Little more power?

Hello,<br> Sounds like you have a problem, the same problem I had, maybe worse!!! I don't know how much you are pulling when this happens but from what I am gathering from this site a stock cummins should pull strong through most gears especially in second or third. Read my thread, <br>&quot;FIRST CTD !!! (Is this how they all act??)&quot; . This will give you somewhere to start in diagnosing your truck.<br> <br>-CHRIS
