I went to a Ford dealer on Rt 113 and they re flashed my truck for me. My rv is in Va and I drove back to the Ford Dealer they did it for me Saturday. I called my Dealer today and asked him what my gauge should max out at and he would not give me a answer. I am worried that my turbo may be sticking or something else is going wrong. After I put the pipe back on everything worked but I noticed pulling a steep hill the gauge was around 40. I have never pulled a 5th wheel this size or weight. And I never go North I just do not care for it. DE, MD and VA. is for me. Good food, good friends and just fun camping. When my truck is good to me.

Sam, I pull a a 5 ton trailer with a 3 ton tractor on the trailer. I always use the tow/haul mode. I can't recall if I ever hit 40psi but do know it was over 30psi, especially getting up to highway speed.

This week my truck had hesitation very bad and it was dead so I called Ford dealers in my area to see who had a person that worked on diesels full time. I found one and they repaired my truck. I got a metal tube not the plastic one. The trans flushed and the injectors flushed. It was just under $1000 for all of the work but it was worth it. Now I can make it over the St. George Bridge in overdrive!
