After cam issues
I recently put in a TSP 231/237 cam with 918's. I got through 3 heat cycles and decided to rev it up Sunday after it got to normal temps. I revved it up and when it came back down to idle, it sounded like it was going to stall for about 4 seconds. Then the idle went back up to normal. I am thinking a tune is needed. I've been told the car was tuned for the TR220 cam that was in it, but I am not 100% sure.
I also smell gas when it is idling. I assume it needs leaned out a little.
Is this common after cam installs?
