Hmm interesting I know these trucks had less then impressive HP but I have always felt something is holding it back. The truck passes emissions just fine but really low on acceleration. I might have to get some kind of pressure gauge to get this checked out. At least it gives me one more place to look.
thanks to all
Well after looking at prices on convertors this might have to wait for while. Now in CO cats have to be c.a.r.b. certified which would run anywhere from 800-1300. I am sure hoping it is not the cat.
