if it's a 5.0 just disconnect the negative battery cable for at least 10 minutes to clear the KAM in the ECU. and set the TPS output voltage to 0.98 volts with the throttle closed and key on but engine off and you should be fine.

Whoa RollinThunder picked up 113 rwhp with just a tune. It must be a diesel.
