p/s return line to booster

For some stupid reason, my truck decided to lose power today when exiting the freeway. D/s egt gauge verified it with no increase in temp when stepping on go pedal. After about a minute, I could feel it gain power. So, rolled into fuel station, and topped off tank. While filling, I popped the hood and started messing with the uvch and looking around. It was then I noticed that darn hose riding on top of a ton of wires. Pulled said hose up and sure enough, a wire is shafed clean off of insulation.
Anyway, something to check while looking around under there

Good info. I guess you're typing from a phone? Might want to correct a little spelling to make it easier to understand that the return hose had caused a chaffed wire.

Lol.. Yeah, my phone has a mind of its own. Also I saw Chris, my m/s tube riding atop a set of wires. May need to flip the clamp around to hold the tube up off them writes

Not to be an *** here, but is it possible for you to go back to post #1 and edit it to make a bit more sense? I believe I got the idea of the first half, but I read the second half 10 times or so and still am not seeing the message.
