Lost power under boost. Will only run for about five seconds. 700 1990

It sounds to me like you have a leak in one of your turbo hoses or the intercooler. It could be the AMM, but I would double check the turbo hoses. Check carefully around the hose clamps. That is where mine wore through.

The engine will run in limp home mode with the AMM disconnected, but not very well. This mode should get you home if the problem is the AMM or a hose leak. Do not disconnect the AMM unless the power is off.

Good Luck!
