I have a 04 F450 with 6.0 all stock except an airraid air cleaner. I pull a 17K toyhauler most of the time, but am in a KOA and was driving just the truck, came to a hill and all of a sudden the turbo gauge went from 20 to 10 and sounded like it was missing. looked on your website and sounds like it could be a bad EBP/ Turbo solenoid / or EGR valve. My issue is I'm in Arkanasa and live in California. Haven't hooked the trailer up yet, but wondering if it is save to keep going home or am I in trouble? Thanks

found the problem to be bad fuel, used a lot of Lucas Fuel Treatment and a couple of tanks of good fuel and it seems to be running fine. Not sure if we are 100% cured but sure running better now. Haven't had any problems in the last several days and pulling just fine.

Give it some hard driving once in awhile to clean the VGT. Maybe it was sticking
