I've been told my 2.0L engine is running rich. Can anyone give me some tips on where to start to verify this and get it resolved? I am runnign the stock D-Jet FI.

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Dave,

Here is what I can tell you... Engine was rebuilt about 1000 miles ago. I trust the engine was rebuilt correctly and that the valves are in good shape (again, just an assumption). All vaccum hoses are new and I'm confident they are attached correctly. Timing is set correctly. Engine overall runs GREAT! I just had a few guys the other nigte say the engine smelled like it was runnign a little rich...

I will check the MPS. Is this the Pressure sensor called out on Page 17, #11 or #7 on page 40 of the Haynes Manual?

Is the intake temperature sensor the same as #9 on page 17 in that same Haynes diagram?

Other than timing, what could I check with the ignition?

Would the adjustment on the brianbox affect this at all?

Thanks,
Jason
