Cummins power loss
We are in Gulf Port Ms and the last 30 miles could not get over 2200 rpm . First part of the trip was good, I filled up this Am 220 miles ago. What does it sound like?
Thanks

Is it a turbo? Check your hose connections. Check that you haven't crushed your exhaust outlet. or.....fuel!

It's a turbo, everything looks solid and intact it stumbles and dies at stop lights.

I agree, although bad fuel usually would've showed up sooner. If you're getting black smoke, too, check the air filter.

New fuel filter and we were up and running all the way home at 60-63 mph.
Thanks to all for your help
