Question No Passing Gear

Hi Guy's & Gal's

I have a '99 F350 SW 4x4 Diesel, Automatic W/ 159000 mi. and last week I lost my passing gear, the truck will gain speed at a gradual pace but if I get into it the motor rev's but no speed. It goes through the gears fine and my OD work's. I can get the truck going up to 70 but if I hit a hill it slow's to about 60 even in Cruise. Any suggestion's as to why this is happening.

Maybe a turbo issue or air cleaner.. Sounds like its not making the same power.

I have done some more checking on my truck and reved it sitting in the parking lot and it rev's fine to about 1800 rpm's and then it sound's like it is just blowing air at 2000 rmp and higher, the motor to where it should blow some smoke.

You shouldn't do that. Reving it without a load...Hows the oil?

haven't reved it long, just to see what it would do, That won't hurt it. the oil is fine the air filter is good, I have automotive expeiance rebuilding truck's and farm tractor's just not big on Diesel truck's. Think I would since we have 3 of them and 4 diesel tractor's.
