Default 11.5 AFR at Idle

I am trying to help a friend tune his car at the dyno. No matter what I change on the injector flow rate the car runs at 11.5 : 1. The long terms are at -15 then go to -8.

My question is is there a desired AFR in the ECM that might be messed up. The dude bought the car used so who knows who tuned it. Also does anyone have a stock 99 M6 file that I could get so I can compare.

Thanks. I am using EFI Live.

NB O2 sensors could be shot. Could have a vacuum leak, an exhaust leak, a ported MAF, or any number of variations from stock that can monkey with his A/F ratio.

I put a stock maf back in. the O2's match the dyno afr's. The car has 42 lb injectors with a Procharger. We have not started any other tuning since I cant get it to work at idle or cruising speeds.

The oil is way fuel saturated. I am going to see if that helps. We know in about 20 min.

I just found out that he drove the car for 2 weeks with no tune. So I think maybe the oil might fix it.

thanks for the input.

Found the problem late last night. One of the fuel injectors was leaking while the car was running.


Thanks for all the help.
