Elevated Idle Mod

If anyone is considering the high idle mod, I just did it and it was a piece of cake. It cost me a couple of bucks for the hardware and saved me a few hundred on the AIC I would have bought had this mod not been available in the tech folder! This mod is only available with Torqushift transmission though.

The tech folder is here on the 6L powerstroke forum main page. It's the third post titled " Read First......Tech Folder". The elevated idle mod is indeed easy and very useful.

It's a very easy mod. Heck, I never even had time to open a beer and it was done! The instructions in the tech folder are right on. Print 'em out and go for it.

Here's a link to another thread with instructions from Ryaneverk:
