Diesel Sputtering

Is it normal for the PSD to kinda sputter when idling? When I am at an idle it seems like the turbo sputters, maybe the motor? It almost sounds as if your motor is running and you keep covering and uncovering your ears.

I am sorry this is a lousy explanation. But, I was with someone who had a PSD 99.5 also, and there's did not do it. I am puzzled.

Any help would be appreciated.

You should post this in the 7.3 Powerstroke forum also. That forum is dedicated just to 7.3 Powerstroke motor questions and tech.
