disconnect your battery for 25-30 mins. that way your computer will attempt to relearn the tables. if this doesn't fix it, then you'll prolly just need a slight tune, you may be running rich.

You need to find out what code it is your throwing, then it will be much easier to troubleshoot. You could have a burnt o2 wire, a messed up o2 extension, dead sensors, etc.

found the problem. the back spark plugs was slighty cracked , so little it wasnt even noticable until i looked really close.


Another problem tho. I am running about the same times on the gtech that i was. I am actually running a bit slower. I know it might not be accurate but it is precise.

Could this be because i need a tune or that i just need some kind of restrictioin considering i am bascially running open headers because im using the lm?

AutoZone is your friend when it comes to codes. They will hook you up and give you a reading for free. Some other parts stores might do the same. Basically, you just need to find out what codes you are throwing. Then you can track down the problem
