Re: Idle hunt: to much timing or what?? just for grins, did you try another 1-2 degrees of timing in your Base tables? as an experiment, try it, put some miles on it, see what yields.
the main point i am trying to make with all my input here is that you may actually need a little bit of everything at idle: more air, more fuel and more timing. sometimes people get confused about their idle symptoms when all indications suggest it should be fine. It is in this situation i have found the motor to just need a little more of everything. Just a suggestion since i am not there seeing/hearing the car and looking at your traces myself. there may be other clues uncovered.

What table would I tweak to get a little more fuel at idle? And what cells also....
also its normal for my 02's to stay like around .850 before they reach a certain temp and then they start switching??
