2004 turbo hilux kzn165r.turbo seems to be cutting in and out, like it will go for a bit then stop and then come back and so on.happend about a month ago but only did it 10km then come good but drove 50km this afternoon and its been doin it all the way.can some one help me, what would be causing this????
Check the turbo waste gate actuator may be getting stuck and or the short rubber hose that actuates it (runs across the front of the intake side) may be split or damaged.

thats what i thought, but changed it on saturday and no better.i might drain my tank at the end of the week just to make sure theres no shit or water in it.otherwise it might have to make a trip to dieselcare and hope they can find the problem
well took it up to diesel care today and they put it on the dyno.said its only running at 75% power and the turbo boost is only 9 which should be up around 12 or more.they reckon the fuel pump might be on the way out and its not getting enough fuel although they werent definite.whats your thoughts
dieselcare told me that, it seemed like they didnt have much of an idea when i picked it up.umm it could be this could be that probably this, kind of attitude
I had a surf that did the same thing once, the dash I had also had these too little led's. One red the other green and both of those were dark as well. It turned out to be a small rubber hose had split that went to a electronic sensor.

Whoever told you 12psi is having a lend of you.
The Hilux turbo from 99-03 1kz-te were 8-9PSI.These where Japanese builds.
Hilux from 04 on fitted with the 1kz-te were 11-12 PSI.These were the first of the Thailand builds sent to Australia.They were also fitted with a larger radiator and different grille,lights.
