I think you're jumping the gun. First off, high second on a 1066 is over 10 miles per hour. That's way too fast to be doing any sort of tillage work, and is probably just too high for the load you're pulling. Allan's got it right, low fourth is the gear you want. If you want to get more work done faster, get a bigger plow. Turbochargers are very expensive to rebuild/replace, and there are several other things that are much more likely to cause a low power complaint. Fuel filters are the first thing. Next, air filters. Then make sure your throttle linkage is adjusted correctly and that you are getting full rated speed out of the engine. If all this checks out, it would be money well spent to take it to your nearest farm equipment shop and have it dyno tested to see what it's really putting out. Most shops only charge about $75 for a run on the dyno. Inspect your turbo by removing the hose between the turbo and the intake manifold. If you've got oil inside of that hose, it's time for a rebuild. Check the shaft for play. A little up and down play is OK but you do not want much endplay. Your boost pressure can be checked by connecting a guage to the intake manifold, but you'll need to be on the dyno to get a good accurate reading at full rated load.

When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
