Default Yes! Got it!

Got my rig back from the mechanic, new intake gasket! What a difference! This truck never ran right since I bought it last Oct. After crying at the gas pump, barely making it up hills, and just utter frustration. Now my mpgs are up and this thing actually has power! YESSSS!

I assume you had a wee bit of a boost loss, eh?

Yeah, what a difference. I just might like this truck after all!

Amazing what a boost leak can do, eh? Whit had a boost leak party at his place, and every truck (out of a dozen I think) had a leak somewhere. I tested my own, and had a few boots leaking as well.
