too rich too idle.... What now?

After hours of reading all the invaluable write-ups on this site I came to the conclusion that the best way to fix my over rich idle problem would be to start with the blm and the lower rpms in the ve fl1 graph.... I changed the min blm from 86 to 70 and the max from 170 to 150. None of this made any difference then I changed the injector bias from 396 to 200 and the thing came to life in the higher rpms (basically anything but idle) but still won't stay running without the help of my right foot... it is basically drowning and you can smell it.

So I guessing the only left to tinker with would be the IAC... but which one? theres 22 of em.

Right now I am tuning without an aldl cable but tomorrow is payday so I'm doing my homework now so the tuning will be easier.

Another question I'm wondering about is why does my injector pulse width only have one number instead of a progressive graph. Is this just a baseline or did I get a bad .bin?

My engine setup to the left of this post

I am using the 7747 with the amur .bin.

Any input would be very helpful.

Thank you,

Shane

You have to be able to *see* what's going on, before you know where to start. Once you can scan things, then you'll have an idea of what's going on.

While trying to figuring things out ahead of time is commendable, you gotta get that cable. Then you can poke around searching, seeing what others like you have for *normal* readings at idle.
