I was messing with this Dodge going up a hill and all of a sudden my cel came on and I have no boost. My scan tool is an hour away. Sound like a vane sensor? Help please!

blew Intercooler boot?

 

[WisconsinMAX]

No just checked there all tight

 

[kman2468]

coulda put a hole in one. you sure you didnt limp it?

 

[WisconsinMAX]

No I don't believe it limped. How can I check for a hole? Would that throw a code?

 

[DirtyMaxx03]

how far are you from an autozone? or other autoparts place? they have scan tools they"ll let you use.

 

[WisconsinMAX]

Same distance. Out in the sticks for a truck pull/ horse show in Viola WI

 

[WisconsinMAX]

Is it OK to drive it with a bad sensor?

 

[WisconsinMAX]

Anyone?

 

[ahduramax]

if its not making any boost, i wouldn't drive it. too much can go wrong.

 

[WisconsinMAX]

It makes about 2-3 lbs. If I just watch the egts can I drive it home?

 

[ahduramax]

i assume yes, just be SUPER careful with the egts.. with only 2-3 lbs, its going to get hot fast. Perhaps try T/H and see if that helps at all.

 

[WisconsinMAX]

OK. Thanks.

P0087. Change fuel filter?

 

[ahduramax]

[WisconsinMAX]

Its only 6 months old but ill give it a try

[WisconsinMAX]

Just ran a can of sea foam through could that have done it?

Does it stop at 2000 rpm? If so, its a fuel filter problem. Always carry a spare. It ok to drive on if is the fuel filter to get a new one.
