05 rev. power loss after long trip

We did Az to Pa and back and my last fill up was just west of Gallup at a place I never used before cause they were the cheapest of the 3.

Since then my get up and go got up and went! The hills I was climbing at 60mph I now can not keep er above 40.
The eng. temp is about 25 degrees higher.

I had it serviced for fridge, tires and toilet issues prior to going on my next trip to NM and back and had the fuel filters changed out with no change in performance.

The last 20 miles of this last trip I was getting a shutter in the trans just prior to a downshift.

I'm at about 48 k and its always been serviced when needed and I had it gone over when I bought it 6 mo ago.

There's about 7000 miles on the oil. 400 HP cat.

Any ideas?

If you are not getting any engine codes, I'd change both fuel filters first. I don't have an idea about the temp increase. Maybe try calling the Cat hot line in the morning. They are really helpful.
My engine runs 202-206 consistently, even up hills in lots of heat.

You may have purchased some bad fuel during your trip? And... safe to assume you've checked the oil in the engine and in the Allison, and your levels are ok??

Like I said in the beginning. Its been not right since the last tank of the cross country trip. Since then i had the filters changed and have ran 1.5 tanks of fuel through it.


Can someone tell me how pull codes?

Drain tank and Change the filters again by yourself. Sound like you may have gotten some gasoline . Smell the fuel and it might smell like gasoline. Just to make sure its done and right. My 40c Revolution I added cleaner to my tank and have had to change filter 3 or 4 time on one tank of fuel. NOW all is good..

so were would I find these codes?

I am a full time caregiver and need to find someone who can work this out. I have a very expensive warrentee that covers everything but tires and light bulbs and there's bound to be ONE compitant RV dealer in PHOENIX VALLEY!
