how to turn up a p7100 injection pump
 
i have a 1995 dodge cummins and i use it on the farm for pulling and it doesnt have the power i need, how can i boost it up just a little bit w/o hurting my fuel milage?

for minimal gains i would say to just slide your stock fuel plate along with the afc housing full forward. then you can adjust the starwheel and smoke screw, and flip the afc washers!:yeah:

I would not do that without a pyrometer!

you cannot say that without defining the word "a little". "A little" means 1/16" of an inch. When your moving the plate a LITTLE is a LOT.

is not the wisest idea to do anything to your truck withought a pyro especialy messing with the fuel heat is created from fuel so if ya thing adding a bit more fuel wont do any damage you are greatly mistaken my budy in my diesel class had a 97 12v and slid his plate a slight mount and towed 3 sled up our pass total weight about 3k lbs and melted his motor down cause he didnt have a pyro

You can put a BHAF and a bigger exhaust on safely without a pyro and that will help you some :c:

for sure - but adding extra fuel (as in sliding the fuel plate) just increases your exhaust temperature which can lead to melted piston(s)
