Stock 73, 1.7 with FI. Seems to be running a little lean. Which way do I turn the knob on the brain to make it run a little richer? I certainly do not want to over do this, just a slight adjustment, so how far should I turn it?

Thanks,
Joe

Just starting to a very infrequent hesitation at speed.


Around 3,000 rpms when crusing? Most likely culprit is the TPS if it hasn't been swapped out in a million years.
