    towing in overdrive ???

    I like to use the cruise control method, obtain desired speed with OD enaged, engage cruise. The truck will tell you quickly weather or not it likes the conditions. If it holds speed your ok.

    Black Smoke Power Lose

    Having just cleaned and then replaced(questionable bearing) my turbo, I would start there. If it stuck and then freed itself the truck would blow black smoke due to the rich fuel mixture. Some owners splice a switch in the turbo solenoid wires to cause this.
