Unless you have an IDI truck (early 94 and earlier) these trucks don't have any injection pumps. You can do some cheap exhaust mods (cutting out your muffler) and a 6637 filter until you get some funds up for a chip thats about it.

You can also do the "10k mod" or its variants once you do the 6637 & muffler delete. It will give you a little more oomph on the cheap. Sort of like "turning up the injector pump"...

IIRC the '10K Mod' is for high idle (inhibits carbon buildup and keeps the alternator output up during extended idle periods). You might be talking about the IDM mod...https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...-pictures.html

The 10k mod is to trick your pcm into seeing lower than actual ICP numbers so it tries to raise ICP pressures.

Like Paul said, the 10k mod is simply putting a 10k resistor in the ICP plug to trick it into seeing low injection pressures... so it ups the pressure to compensate. Early form of a DIY chip, lots of OBS guys do it but not many SD guys that I have seen. You gain very little, but its super cheap until you can get a good chip like DP Tuner, PHP, Wildman, etc.
