If it runs fine with the old one then why are you replacing it LOL. The only way Ive heard to adjust it is to make sure it reads .96 volts with the throttlle plate closed, there should be three wires, a ground, 5v reference, and then the signal wire which will change voltage as you open the throttle plate, which is around 4v at WOT(wide open throttle). not shure of wire colors I havent owned a 5.0 in a long time
