Just started running rich.
« on: June 11, 2010, 10:08:47 PM »

I have a 99 civic 4door that has been boosted for about 2 1/2 years. Its been tuned on the newest set up for a couple months. and the last 2 days it has been running rich as fuck. It usually cruised at 14.8-15.0 Now its running at 12.5 at all times and then goes all the way to 10.0 then sputters.  Is it the o2 that has gone bad, bad injectors?

If it runs the same I would doubt the injectors are the issue. Check O2 sensor first, then wideband controller like bone said.

edit-oops just saw you said it sputters. Clogged cat?

Jumped timing will do that, too.  Check your cam gearz if you've got them.
