    I have seen faulty throttle pedals do this, or rubbed wires to the ECM, but this also comes with a Check engine light. Do you have a Check engine light on?

    the check engine light comes on for a period of time and other times no engine light. my throttle peddle sems to function ok when I step on it. 3 international dealers can't find any codes and they can't find what is wrong with the truck. when driving even empty in the 10th gear up hills I don't get any turbo boost ( my gauge doesn't read any boost) but if I down shift 1 gear to 9th gear the turbo start working and reading on my gauge the right boost and I have power then, if I have a load it seams like the 9th gear loose it is power after a very short period of time and then I down shift again and so on till i get up the hill, I maybe finish the hill at 5 mph where in the past b4 this problem I can go up hills with no problems at all @55-60 mph and loaded to the max. thank you for helping with your ideas, I need all the help right now to get back home and trade this thing in. so far is been costing me about $900-1500 a week trying to find the problem. thanks for your help heavy d.
