Last weekend we went up to the rubicon and ran the trail, b2 did great! now the hills leaving tahoe were a different story. it normally struggles on hills, SAS w/ 38's. 2.9 motor. But it was doing really good pulling most at 70 and cruising at 75. Then a vacuum line blew off. The one that goes between the hardline connecting exhaust to intake manifold (not all had it). the line comes off the manifold and goes into some type of sensor. Replaced line and wire tied it on 2 miles later the sensing unit literally melted. I plugged the vacuum with a bolt and drove it home, did ok but much less power then normal. replaced vacuum sensor today and its got shit for power. bogging in 1st flat ground. intake is making much deeper sound then usual. doesn't want to rev over 3 grand. Whats going on here??
What ive tried so far:
Replaced vacuum sensor
checked exhaust for water
checked trans fluid for water
Any ideas/insight?
someone was just telling me w/o a trans breather i could of sucked water in and toasted it, but that wouldnt explain the lack of reving.
