Great thread but keep in mind results will vary widely, all dependent on whether it is out of range or not.

There is a tool that sets the preload on the bypass at a certain rod length then you bolt it on while holding the blade open, done carefully the bypass will be in the perfect location for going fully closed without sticking in cold weather and able to go fully open via limited travel of the rod.

The concern I have with this is the same as everyone else, the blade can get stuck in the closed position without any gap.

So it does need a minimal gap to prevent sticking closed.

I think it is a great Idea to check but I don't necessarily agree with the method of adjustment in the video.

The tool is the best method.

It will have no affect on the tune or the AFR, unless it was specifically tuned with a large gap then you close that gap.

Hope this helps.
