I know that everyone here has D-jet but does anyone know of any L-jet gurus anywhere? My car has smelled like it runs rich since I got it. While doing some exhaust work this morning, it was confirmed by the black soot everywhere. I thought I read somewhere that these cars ran rich from the showroom floor. I have backed the idle adjust all the way out with no apparent change in the richness of the mixture. It did change the RPM to a point though. I read in one thread something about coming in from working on the car and smelling like I had been standing next to a diesel campfire. That's me!

i would say if he is rich on every cylinder i would do things like check the cold start injector for leakage first, as well as check every injector. it may be something very simple and messing with a setting that is not designed to be changed is not the way to go.
and ctrout this is not an attack on you: but Brando obviously he is not too sure about what to adjust and inside the airflow meter is too easy to mess up for a beginer to mess with. its better to go back to basics like injector leaking vac leaks ( lean running ) and other sensor stuff before going that far |
