Default Power loss and hesitation

Just purchased an 08 with 15K miles that just did not seem to run on full power or would hesitate. Located an air leak from the plenum to the throttle body. On the plenum side the boot was not seated properly around the bottom of the plenum creating a major air leak. After fixing holy cow what a difference.
You will need a mirror and flash light to see if this may be a potential issue with anyone losing power. The clamp was not well seated. This must have happened either when serviced or was never on properly from the factory.
Anyhow something to look for when checking for air leaks.

Make sure to inspect your plenum to FPR control hose.. Email me and I will send you a tech sheet!
