Hi mate,

is it stock? if not can you give some info on what mods you have.

Also how do you know it is running rich?

 

[scottfoster]

yer i am running
1 bar boost on ct9b
blitz front mount int
stainless steel ex up to cat

i can smell it thats how i know mate well had car for 2 years now no problems until this not bad for a 15 year old car

when you have put mods on do you have to have it set up at a garage

If your running 1 bar what other mods do you have? You must have FCD and FPR? They have to be setup with a wideband. Your more likely running lean than running rich if you don't have either of these, or an aftermarket ecu like a plug and play.

you dont mention an aftermarket ECU or an adjustable fuel regulator so unless something has gone wrong you should be fueling at stock levels. If anything I would say you are probably under fueling when running 1 bar of boost and no fueling mods. Your stock ECU will be fueling for .8 bar if you just have an FCD installed for example.

I dont think you have listed all mods as you say you are boosting 1 bar so you must be controlling fuelcut somehow. Can you give a bit more detail on any other mods you might have.

You should always have fueling checked to make sure its not over/under fueling. You can do it yourself with a wideband or have it done at a graage for a few quid.
