High altitude adjustments?
 
I plan on leaving the plains for the mountains this summer; do I need to adjust anything so my truck will run at the higher elevation? I have an '88 IDI 7.3 with a Banks turbo.

Anyone? Buhler?

I cant say for sure. I went to the mountains last year and didn't have any problems with my truck. You might end up blowing a bit more smoke, but as long as you aren't moving up there I wouldn't worry about anything.

I'm talking about Kansas to Jackson Hole, Wyoming though; Kuna to the Mtns. ain't that much of a change!

sionce you got a turbo, you really shouldnt need to adjust anything, even with the thinner air the turbo should still be pushing air into the engine.

on an idi the fuel has to be turned down since air is thinner
