Interesting info...and odd issue, 89 HSR car..

ive been having a terrible rich smelling idle..

did a search for a few things, and ran across an issue with 02 mv reading super low at idle...

which mine seem to do.. im getting down as low as 50mv at idle

had read that a few issues were cause of a lean condition...

out of curiosity, i started to raise my FP, and sure enough, i watched my BLM's go down closer to 128ish...this occured at 80psi pressure...

and watched O2 volts hang pretty steady around .475/.500 volts, at idle..

im kinda helpless right now without working burner stuff...ugh!

Its funny how lean conditions can make you smell rich conditions.

Re: Interesting info...and odd issue, 89 HSR car..

Can still use PE mode to add fuel above 4600 where maf maxes out. Nothing wrong with that. If you are using a turbo motor then go SD with some sort or 2 or 3 bar map capable setup.

MAF does well in adjusting fuel at part throttle and is less picky than SD. SD requires you to dial in VE for each cell in rpms vs MAP readings. takes more time to get right.
