Your disagreeing with my statement I take it? Did you understand what I am trying to say or your trying to make me looks like a ass? Your post isn't that great either buddy it sounded pretty random to me. So I guess we are even.

I had to re-read it like five times and did not see how that post fit into this threads topic. You told us that you do not know if the weather effects the tune, but you are getting bad mpg's and blaming on the fuel you are buying.

I don't see how that pertains to diagnosing the OP's problem.

Im not trying to make you look like and ass. Sorry to here that 60% of the people on the internet don't treat you too nice.

I did a self tune on safc, returned the tune to stock for over 30% Hi throttle and it runs way better under wot. Then -15% across the board for low throttle.
Return the tune to stock and see what happens and start over again know what I mean?

sounds like another case of the VE swap blues..

both my cars do this until they are warm, i've played around quite a bit an haven't been able to nail it down.. the afr's are always right where they should be though so its rather confusing..

i drove it again and it only does it from 9-15% throttle at only 1800-2400 rpms...hmmm... but wot it still 12.7-13 afr


I did do the 4-wire o2 mod on it while I had it (within a year of you buying), and definitely go NGK plugs. Hopefully you get it all worked out. Car looks great too. Are you coming this way for convention? I'd love to check it out if you do. I'm gonna come out to some events.

Ahh okay. When dealing with our cars, I find the simplest explanation is most usually the true one, and coincidences often happen. I got caught in a bad rain storm once with my CAI and the engine stalled but started up again and it was fine for years. Weird
