after installing my block off plates thursday, and honing out the double throttle butterflies, i resarted the car. i adjusted the idle again, and let the car warm up. well, upon dirving the car, i noticed that the air-fuel ratio on the autometer guage was reading lower, like in the middle of the stoich range......help please?????

What are you using for fuel control?
|
uuhhh. stock ecu...
yeah, i know....i will have a power fc soon.... i just do not think that the a/f was going to change..... any opinions? |
Yeah when you change the fuel system at all the Factory ECU NO LIKEY...... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
APEC or NEW ACM will control everything maybe recheck all the intake and intercooler piping..... but it sound like ECU |
actually, if someone out there might agree, i have found another possibility. the ground that is the smaller of the 2 on the engine hoist, i believe to be a secure ground for the o2 wire, right? well, i am noticing MORE THAN USUAL changes in the readings with the electrical loads on it. touching the brake, turning the lights on/off, and turning the ac on. all of these functions LOWER the reading substantially. i think that the issue is ground related.
as far as the mod of the block off plates are concerned, the only thing that i did that might affect the a/f ratio was taking out the double throttle butterflies..... any one else agree....... louis |
do you mean your going richer or leaner?
|
grounding could be but i've never seen. breaking and stuff having an effect on a/f is weird.
what about performace? any lag in boost, them it is a fuel control issue. Give us more details. |
After i took off my air pump my idle went down quite a bit, it idles at about 400 now.. even when i turn the idle screw up it doesnt change. And it smells like it runs richer. I dont have a a/f guage right now, but you can smell the gas pretty well.
