Hi all,
I have a 2010 diesel that has no power.

It revs up fine but as soon as I put a load on it the engine bogs down and I have to relieve the load on it. If I go up hills I have to stop, let it rev up, go again and then stop and let it rev up again.
It stars up fine and runs fine with very little smoke. Some smoke at idle and just off idle. It doesn't make any wierd noises other than the occasional intermittent sputter. Overall though it seems like it runs okay. It's a new crawler for me that I have very little experience with its running characteristics.
Thanks for any suggestions or insight!

It should smoke under load, they don't burn that clean. I would replace the fuel filters first, and make sure there is no restriction in the fuel line anywhere. Also check the air cleaner, normally a plugged air cleaner will make them smoke more, but still worth checking. Barring that, I would guess a timing or fuel delivery issue.
