 At this point, the control unit should be in the diagnostic mode for outputting the fuel trim as an on/off ratio. After this, when the engine is started, the CHECK ENGINE LIGHT should be illuminated.

+  - Remove EHA valve from fuel distributor
+    - Unplug wire connector
+    - Remove 2 screws holding EHA valve to fuel distributor while covering the EHA valve with a rag to catch fuel that will squirt at your face
+    - Pull EHA valve off fuel distributor, noting the 2 green rubber sealing rings.
+  - Remove the screw cover with a flathead screw driver
+  - Use a 2mm allen key to turn the adjustment screw inside the EHA valve with small adjustments (1/4 turn at a time)
+    - Turn clockwise to **enrichen the fuel mixture**. This **decreases the duty cycle** or **increases the voltage**, depending on whatever method you are using.
+    - Turn counter-clockwise to **lean the fuel mixture**. This **increases the duty cycle** or **decreases the voltage**, depending on whatever method you are using.
+  - Reinstall EHA valve

+  - Use small increments for adjustments such as 1/4 of a turn while checking the new duty cycle or voltage to avoid making large changes that could cause the engine to stall or not start.
