Hahahhaa. Been there done that! Here is the list: check the psi on the fuel pressure regulator. If it is at all high replace it. That was the cause of my headache for a few months... Temp2. How old is yours? Check the resistance per bentley. Even thouhg it may read in the ballpark or dead on, it may be bad. There are a few cases of this on the list where things like the connector was bad. Oxygen sensor. Get out the book and check it too. Again how old is she? If she is old that could be bad. fuel injector- make sure they are not stuck open per bentley. Check the spray pattern. Beware that running rich for a long time will cause your catalytic converter to clog and stop working.

The question is; what are all the things that would make this car go so rich, so I can test them all. I am sure there are a few things that I am not aware yet. Step by step. > Zoltan >
