You may not like my reply, but what you are doiing does not seem to make sense to me! You can gain 5 miles per hour at 2800 Rpm and possibly a slight fuel milage increase, is it really worth the cost of changing gears?? Sounds like the diesel is doing its job but dropped a a valve?? The 3208 likes to have a valve adjustment about every 30,000 miles if it does not get it it is inclined to eat its own valves.
I am familiar with Texas roads as I spend the winters in Rockport, and I can tell you that even at 77 MPH those folks will still be passing you (smile).
