Is my turbo boost working properly
I have a 1996 Monaco Dynasty and thinking that the turbo boost is not working as it should. I will try to explain this the best I can. I drove from Ontario to New Jersey yesterday and had to endure...

Looks to me like everyone missed the first thing when we have power or
boost problems is to replace the fuel filters .
Power and boost is developed by burning fuel , when that supply slows
down both will suffer when you need it the most .
As to how the boost works , when you push down the accelerator the fire
inside grows bigger the exhaust starts really blowing and that exhaust
spins the turbo then the boost gauge starts climbing .
Any time you call for max power the boost should be well over 20 some
models near 30 .
15 is pitiful you get the boost right and you will be amazed .
Please replace the filters even if they are relatively new .
A trip to Cummins or who ever could be very costly then to find out
it was filters all along .
Of course it could be any of the things mentioned above also but filters
first .
