Anyone have the specs for what the CO percentage should be on a 2.0 F.I system? I'm dialing mine in, but I need to know what the baseline should be. If you have the at WOT percentage that is needed also.

This won't be setting you up to pass emissions or anything, but around 3% should be good for power/economy. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Thanks Dan for the reply. The good thing is that we don't have any of the E-check crap here. I'm just trying to get a baseline, for engine health. I'm paranoid to damage the valves and toast a engine. Seeing it cost a small fortune to rebuild. I have it set for 3% at idle. However it drops to the 1.5% area at about 3 grand. Would this be normal? I'm afraid to allow it to run too lean while out cruising.

Well, your 1.5% at 3k rpm probably isn't loaded. If you were driving your 914, it would be higher than that I am sure. I would say you should be fine. Time to drive and enjoy! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)
