i changed my clutch, tranny fluid...and while i was at it. i changed my oil from 10-40 royal purple to 20-50 royal purple. and i noticed my car leaned out a little. i usually kept it just touching rich. (not a wide-band) i run 93 with octane booster in every tank. could the thicker oil dilute my air/fuel mixture??? thats all i can come up with. any ideas???

Not the oil.



Make sure your turbo inlet duck has no leaks.

wire goes to the tab on the firewall.



octane booster = useless, waste of money, gay.

i like octane booster. i have purchased many different brands and some were useless. but there are a few brands out there that do make a nice difference. like 104+ and the lucas oil one.



thanks for the tab info...
