Answer
Hello and thanks for the question...I'll try to help.
 I would check a few things:
1. Fuel pressure....it should be at 38-41 PSI with the engine running.
2. Check the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve. Make sure it is not stuck closed and that it is getting the proper vac. signal.
3. Even though the Check Engine Light has not come on, still check the computer system for fault codes.
4. Check the engine tune up condition.
Hope this helps,
Erik
