Your going to need some scan tool to tune with the alky. The alky may be fine, and your not getting the fuel you need. All it takes is a vac. leak somewhere and your fuel pressure drops, or a leak in the actuall fuel line. I'm not saying that is what it is, but this can happen and without a scan tool there is no way to know. The dial for the turn on setting is a continuous dial, meaning it can be turned several revolutions. Turn your boost down to about 14 lbs, go on the highway and floor it. Turn the dial until the activation light turns off, and then you know where its set. I had mine all messed up, and it ended taking 3 full turns for it to get into its setting area.
