Default Heads up- Roush Bypass Valve Sticking

Hey Just a heads up guys, My truck started to feel a little weird, one minute it would pull nice the next it wouldn't pull like it was making any boost. Then one day it surged while pulling away from a stop sign hard.. It was leaving a little lazy then just everything came on all at once. Anyway, I found the issue. Occasionally the bypass valve bell crank will get hung up on the fuel rail. I haven't clearanced mine yet but it should take care of the issue.
