Down on power.

Say like Paul Harvey, "For what it's worth" I took a ride in SS-747 today and she is definitely suffering a power loss. It doesn't show up till 2nd gear when full boost develops. Intermittent belches of raw fuel out of the Caterpillar D11R exhaust pipe (now offered WITH raincap) leaves the tell-tale evidence of an inlet pressure side leak. The fuel injection attempts to cover the high boost/ low boost surges and power-loss is the result. She might have a "little more" left in her.
Since X is burned down for a couple of weeks, (welding accident) maybe someone else want to try her?
These are "just the facts, ma'am"
