Caution: The maximum speed limit screw is only installed on certain versions of the high pressure fuel pump and is sealed by the manufacturer at the factory using paint or wire. The screw should not require adjustment. Do not touch the screw if the vehicle is still under warranty, otherwise the warranty will be void. This adjustment requires the use of a tachometer - refer to Chapter 1 to search for alternative methods. In all cases, contact your Ford dealer or fuel injection specialist before attempting the adjustment procedures below.
