Default Help

I threw in a tr224 cam, cadi lifters, ported tb, cosmetic -.40 gaskets, slp mid pipe and slp lm2, and a 160 thermo. got a quick tune from pcm4less car ran great stayed around 177 degrees never went past 185 when on it hard. now a week later it constanly goes to 190 and fans turn on bring it down to 181 then slowly creeps back up. so i checked what my o2 sensors where reading cause i would get a lil surging. o2 1 was speradic up to 700, o2 2 was 440 to 445 and o 3 was speradic just like o2 1 is this normal? im thinkin m running lean but thats just a hunch. Can anyone help me out?

On the coolant temps bleed the coolant system as you may have an air bubble.
If you are getting a little idle surge open the throttle blades a little bit to help the IAC maintain the idle.
Thanks,
Bryan

i bleed it twice today still the same. car ran fine and idled fine when i put in your tune. that was one of my main concerns was how it was going to idle when i pu the tune in. idle great. now as soon as it started surging is when it start seeing 190 consistanly. it never when past 185 no matter how hard i ran it now it will hit 190 just idleing. im cleaning the maf and filter right now cause i did that when i put the new tuned comp in. seeing if thats my prob cause when i took it apart found some pollen. i think its cause my lid never really seals good. if the maf was dirty would it make it run hotter?
