turn the fuel screw one turn or more turns to create horspower and torqe and black smoke
the full screw will work for gen 1 pickups but if you have a gen 2 a (1994-1998) then you have to move your fuel plate up.
If it smokes without a "chip" it might have a failed injector.

Cummins is good. Dodge is not. Cummins has always been a good engine. Dodge is lucky to have the contract with Cummins. I have 2 Dodge Cummins (an 1992 and 2006). Both have electrical problems and the transmission in my 2006 isn't great and that's with stock power and only 93,000 miles. The 12-valve Cummins is all mechanical- easy and cheap to get power out of it. The 24-valve Cummins is computerized- have to buy a programmer. The best combination would be a Cummins in a Chevy.
