I just bought a 98 dodge 24 valve diesel. I love it but have one concern. It seems only to be when its cold, I'll lay into it and it bogs, with lack of power. At first I thought it was the trany, and then I thought it was a fuel issue which it still may be, dout it but I noticed the turbo not running, I couldnt here it whistlin. The guy I bought it from went through a couple turbos and then this ones Brand New. Im sure because of what Im experiencing, But It seems like after a couple of miles of warm up it goes away. Pretty sure the turbos fine. Seems minor, Help Me Out!!!!!! Please Thanks

 

Is your truck bone stock or does it have some mods???? If sonwhat are they. Do you have a fuel pressure guage????

 

I'm fairly certain it is all stock. It would slowly and slugishly excelerate, but once it hits about 2300 RPM the turbo kicks in and takes off like there was never a problem

just replied, when you get a chance. Thanks

 

Probably not the same issue Mine kinda did this a while back turned out it was the map sensor giving a low boost signal but I had a code. It would throw me into kind of a "limp" mode till it saw more boost than it would spool up and take off. It was weird. Is your check engine light on or burnt out? Wait where are you from? Mine was a 98 24v that I sold to someone else.

 

We just took it out and ofcourse when its cold only, it wouldn't spool. We are curious if it is a safety for the turbo so that it doesn't damage the turbo. or force cold air into the motor. I bought it in West Sacramento. Its super clean.
