Stopped by to pick up a pizza and took off to no power. Accelerator all the way down not much there. Had just enough umph to get home. I had to manually shift to avoid the transmission from work through the gears too fast because I wasn't gaining the speed I would with where the RPM I was at.
Checked the boost, hoses were firm and pressurized at 2500. No Codes, dummy lights, nothing. Bled the fuel head as there was a considerable amount of air in it. Oil level is good and no leaks. Transmission fluid the right color and not cloudy. |

OK. Just took it out and seems to be OK so either its intermittent or my money is on the air in the fuel head. I did have to pump it about 5 cycles (4 reps each cycle) to get it running fuel with no sputtering. Crossing fingers for the morning commute! |

In tank lift pump would be a starting point in this situation. |

And a 2n gen fuel filter head (blue heater element plug on drivers side) if you do not already have one. |
