Turbo question (Updated) (FIXED) :>)
Rig is '98,5.9 ISB, 275 HP. Yesterday while in some hills when I would accelerate on the hills turbo boost guage would barely move. On flatlands it would operate normal (22 on guage). My thinking ...

Thanks for the replies. It is down on power but no black smoke.
The low boost is under high throttle position.
The problem started when I was about 5 miles from campground so I didn't observe all that I should have.
The fuel bowl on bottom of filter is clear. Can it still be a problem with filter? I'll change the filter anyway--just wondering. And I'll buy a couple of extras before we get back on the road. (Will be here (Crossville, Tn) for a week.) That should give me time to check out any other suggestions. :>)
We are headed to Gaffney, SC Freightliner service center for our annual service. Just hoping to be able to get there!!
Any more ideas/suggestions are welcome.
Thanks
