    I was looking for this manifold about week. My local TK dealer had no stock. Called AZ, NV , NM dealers and non of them had it. Bough it at Tulsa TK. It was $66 plus tax

    Installed it. Tested in AZ. It was 110 114f today here... Its ok now. Very little stalling, maybe 2-3 seconds and rpm goes up. The problem solved

    good deal, turn idler screw all way in should resolve that problem. Then check fuel filters and make sure low pressure line is at least 10 feet long, make sure goes gradually from compressor to cab.

    my 06 is running like dream every since new manifold installed.

    Since there is no information in instalation manual regarding the length of low pressure hose, can you please advise why return line must be at least 10 feet long?
