I have a 12 valve with full forward afc housing the plate isnt all the way forward and when ever i hit high rpms the truck feels like it is defueling it self. I mean there isnt not power from like 2000 rpm and up i dont know if its the a starwheel adjustment or if its a governor spring problem? What can i do to get more power and fix the problem? -

yea i agree, cause my truck does the same thing and it wont rev over 2200rpm cause of the stock gov spring. i plan on going to a 3k gsk in the next couple weeks. -

govenor springs will do the job, but you can tighten your stock spring and get a few more rpms out of it. -

well dont you have to take it to ap7100 pump mechanic or something or does it just go in the afc. If i can do it can some one explain how to do it.

andhow will you tighten the stock one????? -

The spring goes right into the afc housing under the fuel plate. I don't know how to tighten it, but thats what the guy who did my first fuel plate did to my governor spring. But if you can figure out how to tighten it, or get a 3200/4k by this weekend we can learn how to do it together since I'll be watching my parents house in Belen this weekend while their gone -

Shim your governor springs - Competition Diesel.Com - Bringing The BEST Together
here is a link on what you can do yourself.you can buy a kit for about $80.00 -

sorry man i would be all over that there is just one problem im in tulsa oklahoma right now going to school for weling and i wont be home untill christmas hopefully!!!! -

if you are back by then, hit me up and I'll come down and give you a hand. We shut down half way through december at work and dont resume until the 2nd week of january so I'll have plenty of time on my hands -

well does anybody have a diagram the shows th layout of the afc or knows how to tighten up the govenor spring? -

Regardless, Anyone will tell you tightning the springs can cause driveability issues. Adjusting them is pretty simple. I tell most folks to go through the side plug (Less chance of dropping somthing in the pump) I do mine from the top most the time.
Take the plug out, Roll it (motor) over till you see the spring and retainer.
We've got 4K's on special right now. Another common issue that isnt noticed until fuel is added would be the gov. arm getting under the plate and hanging! The gov arm should always be adjusted once and new plate and gov. springs are installed! Or atleast checked! -

Man this stuff is confusing i think im better tought by someone actually showing me how to do it. I might be cause i havent seen inside the afc yet to see all the parts and wat not -

this one might be a little more helpful than the packbrake pdf. Reading the pacbrake instructions got me lost and I wish I would have found this pdf sooner because it would have saved me $100 when I had my gsk installed -

Right on. When are you going to do your spring? -
