    lean question?

    thanks for the pointer on that one jet jock i was about to go get into it too. it appears that it only goes up 2 psi or so, so im assuming that there are no restrictions. time to start looking elsewhere

    lean question?

    well i just checked all my lines no kinks or anything. i know the fuel filters good i just did it 500 miles ago.i may take the lines apart and try blowing through them with air a little later. the fpr guage says ive got 30-32 psi of fuel so i doubt it could be restricted to much if it is.

    lean question?

    the vf signal is at 5 which from my understanding is at full rich. what actally is that reading off of? could it be something as simple as a cooling temp sensor thats giving a bad reading so my car is compensating for it? maybe a lazy 02 sensor thats not kicking a code? bad or not fully working...
