Sounds like a CHT Issue to me... I have had the same problem in the past myself.
If you hook your Ohm meter to it you should have about 2500 Ohms at 68 degrees F. If you get a reading significantly higher than 2500 Ohms like I did the computer will command more fuel. If it is unplugged it will think it is -40 degrees F . And dump as much fuel as it can. You will likely need to change your oil too.... Good Luck |
