Re: Running rich

A throttle body injector that is blocked-opened is a possibility. THere are 2. Peeking visually into the TBI can provide a clue, or tricking the wiring to drive one injector at a time .... I doubt a false O2 reading can have such an effect...specially since O2 control happens only after engine has warmed up...unless that is the case.

THe blockage can be mechanical or electrical (shorted grounding transistor).
