Default Bank 1 is lean! Help please

OK I had a broken trickflow upgraded valve spring on the exhaust side (https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...m-misfire.html ) and I was lucky enough to have TEA send me a new one. I installed it again started it with new Tr6's and 2 new o2's. But the car is still running pretty lean on bank 1 still the same way it was running when the spring broke. The car is like missing during acceleration but once it hits 4k it comes alive! I have aeroforce guages and when I switch to the short trims b1 and b2, b2 is always in the -. whatever but B1 is always + anywhere from 2-14!. What can be wrong? Is my tune off? can the PCM loose its program? What can the problem be?

Thanks

Are all of the injectors fully seated both in the manifold and connectors?

The pcm can't loose its tune.

When was it tuned and was there problems when it was being tuned?

Try to check the + wiring to the injectors. The - is regulated by the ECU.
What you can do is to measure the flow from each injector in a cup and measure cc in the cup.
Just a taught...

just a thought swap injectors from 2,4,6,8 to 1,3,5,7 look in the end of the injectors especially #1,7 as they are at the end of the rail. I had a similar problem ended up being #7 injector was full of ****. Went thru cleaned all my fuel lines fuel rail and injectors out and car was back to normal...being turbod i thought i lost #7 cyl so for me to find dirty injector made my day 100x better!

if the problem moves to bank 2 u know u got a bad injector

BTW injectors still click like they are firing if they are packed full of **** so listening just isnt enough.

Lol no I didn't mean it towards you!

I meant it towards the car that doesn't wanna tell me exactly what her damn problem is. Sorry you took it that way !

Kelly Smith: while I was looking for the broken valve spring issue I had all injectors cleaned and flowed and I put the 2 inj. that flowed just a Lil more on cyl #7 n #8.
