Need your help if anyone can offer some assistance. Recently I have noticed a loss of power when engaging any inclines, speed and rpm drop off and it's a struggle to maintain power. I have recently added a can of fuel inject cleaner and have replaced the air filter and plan to replace the fuel filter shortly. So far these remedies have not providing any change in the power loss. Anyway other ideas or suggestions as to what might be causing this?

I wouldnt add anymore injector cleaners to your vehicle if its turbo charged, it could have adverse effects on your turbo(s).
