Advice for 1st LS engine swap PO172 175
Any advice would be much appreciated. Build complete except for following:
Problem
1. PO172 & PO175. Runs rich both banks
2. Fault codes prevent catalytic converter & O2 monitor from coming on
3. Fuel trims are -15
Symptoms
Starts easy. Idles smooth til warms up. No codes at idle. Codes appear during GM drive cycle on acceleration to 45 mph+ or on deceleration to 20 mph. Fuel system goes closed loop and all other systems are ok. Rough idle, stalls, hesitation after warm.
Tests I have done:
MAF (new) is .79 to 1.2 lb/m @idle.
MAP (new) manual vacuum is 18 in Hg & steady at idle.
Fuel pressure regulator = 52 psi key on engine off; 50 psi @ idle.
Engine 150 psi on all cylinders: oil pressure 44psi @ idle.
New plugs, wires, thermostat, TPS, Injectors s( supposed to be tuned to 42lb
All vacuum leaks fixed after home made smoke machine test.
HELP?
