    I have backed them off on many trucks in my area, and in my own fleet. I used to run them all the way off without problem but got a couple that set check engine lights. Now I set them at .035 - .038 . Guys who had problems with cracked housings don't anymore. I... "I" belive that it helps by reliving some of the stress on them

    Since u thought u were having trouble with one,maybe u have a bad wire and backing iva's off has nothing to do with ur cel.Just a thought since so many have backed them off with no cel.

    I've heard of guys backing them off .30 without setting the CEL off. I talked to Mr. Haney about it and he didnt think it was a good idea to back them out.
