Guys,
I have my starboard 3208TA taking too long to climb up onto the cruise RPM. It hangs at 1900 RPM for 2-3 minutes while the port side gets right up to 2300 RPM and purrs. It will finally get there and run fine but I have to milk it for awhile on the port side until out of the blue it jumps up on the RPM.
Some people tell me it is the turbo sticking, others tell me it is the fuel system? Anyone have any ideas? No smoke or noise, just won't get past 1900 RPM even at WOT. It is starting to take longer and longer to get it up to 2300 RPM so I think I need to get it looked at.
Please give me your advice. I am trying to find a good CAT tech in Ft Lauderdale but being new to the area I just do not know anyone.
