On the back of the pump (where the 4 lines to the injectors come out) there is a slotted screw and a 13mm nut that tightens it up. Start the engine, let it idle. Lossen the bot, turn the screw inward, which will make the engine run a bit richer. The idle may go up, so be prepared to set the idle back down. Take the vehicle for a drive, watch the amount of smoke pouring out the back, but you should see a considerable power increase. Just keep your foot off the floor, (G)
