diesel turbo problems

minime Junior Member Join Date: Jun 2011 Posts: 1	I have a Gulfstream Vista Cruiser '07. I lost acceleration on the highway. I found that the turbo intake hose came off. I put it back on and took it out for a test drive only to have it happen again. There was oil around the inside rim of the intake to the turbo. Can someone please help troubleshoot this problem? I'm new...this happened on our maiden voyage. What could be blowing it off? Thanks for any tips. Ryan __________________

Do you have clamps or does it look like you might have had them at one time? __________________ 1997 Triple E Empress, Freightliner Chassis, CAT 3126 w/ 275 horse's.
