Loss of power
Coming back from trip, I could not get over 50 mph. Changed all filters except for air filter, it looked clean. Any ideas

On my Cummins powered Bluebird there is a switch next to the j1939 port that will dump the SES codes. The codes appear as the SES flashing. Count the flashes paying attention to the pauses and it will give you the codes.
