I had an '84 diesel wagon that had the over-boost valve plugged. The car was a real slug on take off. GOOD LUCK
When driving the car and felling it so slow, I did for many times press acelerator to maximum.The RPM rises but not the torque of the car.
I liked also your idea of the chance of boost line plugged.Is one more item to be checked.
Thanks.
