I have a '98 12 valve with 3000 RPM gov springs, 16.5 degree timing, #10 fuel plate, Bosch 370 injectors, II 62/70 PhatShaft turbo, Goerend tranny with triple disc torque converter...

Problem...when lugging the motor in OD the turbo shutters (compressor surge) boost guage goes from 20-45 PSI and truck shakes to beat hell until I let off or drop to D and RPM's seem to completely get rid of the problem.

A few suggestions I've gotten are wrong combo of trubo and injectors and need to replace one and see if it takes care of the problem, but I dont like the replace good parts just to see what happens theory. I've also been suggested to slide the #10 plate all the way forward and replace the overflow spring as I may not be getting enough fuel when I need it most??? Another suggestion was replace fuel filter and clean pre filter.

As this is my first diesel and I bought it this way I'm dealing with a little bit of information overload/lack of knowledge and trying to pick out the BS and look for the real solution.

Havn't had any luck on Diesel Resource hoping you guys will be more knowledgable and helpful.

Any help would be great.
 
where are you at in Iowa? There are a few of us around here that could take a close look in person and help you figure it out.
