Loss of power, stuck turbo guage

My son is driving through the Canadian prairies in his (once mine)96 CSE manual and has just reported loss of power in all gears, the turbo guage needle not moving when he tries to accelerate. Says engine is smooth, no bad sounds or noticeable exhaust, shifting OK, oil pressure, coolant temp OK, levels checked, but has trouble maintaining speed on even slight inclines. Outside temperature very low. I've told him to check all vacuum hoses, and to put in the spare DI cassette. He's very nervous - so am I, he's in the middle of nowhere. Anything else I can suggest to him?
