Awesome. I need something like that. Or an actual shop would be even better.

Have to drill PCM harness and insert wire as Excursions did not come with the same wire as Superduty's for highidle.

How to: High idle(SEIC) for Excursion's w/ 6.0l - PowerStrokeNation : Ford Powerstroke Diesel Forum

With my luck I was likely to fry something, but it worked out alright.

I was wondering why you did all that as opposed to connecting the wires under the dash, lol. Nice work

Well I woke my truck up from its winter nap and took it to fuel up since the prices dropped. Plus the roads are clean, dry and the snow is......well lacking.
