power loss

I have a 2005 F-250 6.0 PSD. It runs great down the road empty but pulling a camper or car trailer up a steep hill not so well. It starts out strong and when the boost gauge hits around 30 lb. I seem to loose all power and speed drops fast. The dash light that looks like a wrench comes on. I can pull over turn the truck off, restart it with no dash light on. When I pull out it runs and pulls strong again with no dash light on. When the speed rpm and boost builds up again it will do it again. Anyone have any ideas as to where to start looking.
