I borrowed a AF meter from a friend and was wondering what is the best process for reading and setting the mixture.

Can I take readings at idle and hold the throttle at 3k and take another reading or do i need to drive it with it under load?

based on readings which adjustment do I move first static or dynamic?

Got this from one of Chris Foley's posts

in A:F ratio, you want to see:

13.5-12.9 on the gauge while accelerating or climbing,

12.8-12.5 at WOT,

and 16-17 while cruising, going downhill or decelerating.

Right now I am in those ranges with FI. A little richer on WOT as I can get to 11.5 at times. But seems to run well in these ranges.

Mike what numbers are you seeing at idle?

I am getting 27-28 range.

Acceleration and WOT I am close but the idle numbers seem way too lean.
