on the side of the P7100 injector pump. I dont have a pic right now but you cant miss it.


edit: this is what it looks like, just make sure it is getting full movement

i checked it and as far as i can see it is working fine, whether its out of adjustment or not im not sure.could it be internal engine problems, turbo problems, injectors, or injection pump??? if so how will i tell if it is. the truck starts fine, idles fine, and is producing no smoke. it used to get a nice black clowd. i have taken it to a technician and he thought it was fine. the only problem is it lacks a lot of power
