Thanks rick----I will try what you suggested---I just cut and pasted your first reply so I'm not sure if the winking face was there or not.

I am worried about adjusting the alda because I do get some black smoke under heavy load. MPG isn't so swell either at under 20. Sounding like injenction pump problems? How much to calibrate?

I guess I can always adjust the alda back to where it was with no harm done unless I break it.

So...

1st step=check EGR make sure it is not stuck open.

Step 2: Adjust ALDA CCW correct?
