Edit- Oops, i read up and saw where i started using the term "diode" which would certainly fry the IDM. Sorry for the mistake.

Edit again- Zwalters i was looking at your signature. Rudolph Diesel invented the Diesel engine. Adolf was that guy with the square moustache...
I was waiting to see how long it took for someone to realize that. Sharp eyes. Keep looking for the next one.

Now as for the resistor it depends on how it is oriented in the circuit. I can tell you I know more about most circuits than the average joe. It's part of my job to troubleshoot them and fix them. I'll do the research and give alittle better explination of this voltage increase. Voltage shouldn't change circuit reaction time. Pulse modulation is controllled by oscillators which if the current not voltage is increased then the oscillator would create faster pulse modulation. I will post and see what this guys is up to.

I have been a board tech for 10 years and used storage scopes and logic analysers. I now work on semi-conductor equipment for 15 yrs..Working on equipment down to the atomic level and troubleshooting as well..

By intensifying the voltage to the injectors, the injectors mechanically slam shut and slam open in a shorter period of time..thusly changing the timing..advancing it..The injectors also dump quicker, because of the changing of the timing of the events.

I do preform the IDM mod on the IDM 100, 100, 120 series IDM's. have probed more then one IDM module, as a matter of fact we are finding alot of limitations to the stocker, to hold back the true power of the 7.3...Got to have the electronics if you want to make the power..
