Hey guys, I am running rich as hell in my SI... I figured it was because of a bad O2 sensor. I replaced it and the CEL went away... well now it's back (two hours later) and I am still running rich as hell.

Mods are:

IJEN CAI...

suggestions?

 

[rickhilbert]

You have a FlashPro?

 

[lovecheese]

Nope. the only mod on the car is the CAI...

how do you know it's running rich?

like what proof?

 

[lovecheese]

Crap gas mileage.

 

[liljkillah]

get your ecu reprogram at the dealer... same thing happen to me... the tech reset it and its ok now!

Get that CEL read to really see what's causing it.

i'm running rich as hell too ... i'm currently thorwing a cel for an insufficient cat because it is gutted lol

 

[02civicsi]

Are you running a defouler?

 

[thunderdome]

me? ... no .. n thats why the cel is there, that i know

i dont plan on running a defouler ... just going to adjust fuel when i get fp

 

[w00t692]

if you run no cat on the stock tune, you will run rich, then lean, then rich, then lean.

It's programmed into the ecu logic.

Especially if you're running without a defouler.

 

[thunderdome]

thats y i cant wait for fp ... solves all of the problems lol

so you're saying that you are throwing a CEL with a INJEN CAI as the only mod.. that's odd i've had only an INJEN CAI as the only mod for 8 months now with no CEL ever. When you installed it, did you let it idle for 5-10min so the CPU adjusts accordingly or did you go and thrash around right away?

the CAI has been on much longer than the running rich.

When was the last time you cleaned your MAF?

ditto.

My car just tossing up SES lights yesterday when the A/C is on. First thing I'm doing when I get back to VA is cleaning the maf.

 

[02civicsi]

Why wait until you get home? Go to an autoparts store tomorrow & take care of business Dawn or is that Leeloo Dallas Multipass?

 

[atruhondagrl]

Totally Leeloo. Dunno. I don't like messing with my car when I'm not in VA.

 

[02civicsi]

Don't be a baby, it's only a MAF cleaner spray Leeloo
