I know how to do this, and I understand it gives more power. But from what I have read it changes the full throttle stop for different fuels. More throttle for gas, less for diesel. So it really only gives more power at full throttle from what I have read. Then also I may need to turn down the fuel if the EGT is too high.
So FDC bypass for more fuel but then turn down the fuel to keep the temps down. Why not just use throttle control and downshift if necessary? Seems kind of senseless if I am interpreting it all correctly.
This is my first deuce (limited knowledge and experience) and I have yet to give it full throttle as I'm not a believer is dumping in more fuel than can be burned in a 50 year old engine. So far when I need to pull a hill, and there is only one so far, I just downshift to keep the RPMs up so as not to bog it down and yet keep them at 2,000 or below. Running 395s.
What am I missing/not understanding?
Thanks for everyone's patience.
