Big Change in Power
I don't know what is going on and maybe someone will have some insight.
A little background:
I bought this truck 3rd hand about 2 years ago and it's pretty tricked out. It's chipped but it seems that the PCM is programmed, not an additional piece of hardware and it is (was) fast. It would build nearly 30 lbs of boost. Last summer it refused to start one time but started after a few attempts, no issues since. I'm older now and drive like an older man but last summer I went to get into the fuel peddle and it acted like a stock set up. Since it ran fine otherwise I did nothing but kept driving and suspected that my programming went back to stock when it refused to start. Now, I just changed the oil to T6 and it is cold outside (I know that winter air is denser than summer air and therefore burns better) and it is back to running like it used to. What could cause this?
Thanks,
Mark
