RE: help!
The trouble code list is now in the "CTD FAQ..." pinned to the top.
According to the list:
P1693
Turbo Charge Control Circuit Malfunction
Maybe the bio-diesel isn't to blame

p1693 I believe that is related to the vp44. I'd say clear the code and hope it doesn't comeback. May have been a hickup.
