    Could it be starving for fuel? This engine with that program should go to 2300 without any trouble under a load in the mid gears of the tranny. Down a gear from high gear you should be able to pull it to 2300. The reason I'm not saying to try in high gear...........is it will take awhile to build it to 2300 and the speed will be extremely fast. It should be able to do it though. If it can't, I'd say it starving for fuel

    did you check the injector harness for damage? or do a cutout test? sounds like an issue I had with an old 6TS, but in a new set of 6 injectors and that cured it. only did that cause i had them on the shelf though
