Running Rich Need help.

Does any one know wat the common causes are for a direct port to multi port swap motor to be running extreamly rich? the A/F gauge stays peged on the rich side. Any and all information will be helpful.

Re: Running Rich Need help.

do you have a Cold Air intake? Did you reset your ECU? It's a good idea to do that whenever changing your car. Pull the hazard fuse out for a minute. It's located under your hood on the passenger side over the strut tower in the black box (the first red one... 10a)...

Re: Running Rich Need help.

Sometimes I wonder if people read someones thread and then like a week later want to just post the same thing.

Do a search, this exact topic was JUST discussed.

The ECU is not throwing codes anymore, ecu has been reset, and SiZ I know this was discused last week but the question was not answered, i know because i was the one the started the last thread. The injector code that was being thrown has been fixed since. that is why we can not figure out why it's still running rich. We had one theory but no one ever answered the question earlier, and that was is there a diference in injectoers through out the years, and the models over the years?

Re: Running Rich Need help.

What AF guage are you using? Are you using a wideband O2, or just the stock single wire?

Hondas run rich, they all do. Rich is safe.

Re: Running Rich Need help.

throw the AF gauge in the grass, then mow the yard, then put it back in. Does it still read the same? Never trust a guage, expecially ones as fickle as AF guages. Run some injector cleaner though it and see if it still does it.
