60 MILES FROM 1/2 A TANK... and lambda not prime candidate ?

Post by [email protected] »

60mls from full tank to 1/2 way on gauge ?
which i double checked, with same result !
Even been "less eager" with the right foot an not trying for a ticket every given chance made little difference.
So rather than pickle my brain further reading posts of others woes .....
If anyone can translate my emissions results etc ..
And minimize stress,both to wallet and mind,??
details relevant.
95 rev 3 turbo induction kit, hks bov, 3",decat, and exhaust
gizzmo ebc at .73bar ... 7 gain ( just fitted, same time as decat )
oem smic ( hence safe boost levels)
test figures
test 1 .......... test 2
co- 6.577 ...... co-3.838
hc-301ppm .... hc-118ppm
lambda-.903 ... lambda- .930
natural idle ... co-6.510

ANY ADVICE OR POSITIVE REPLY APPRECIATED
failing that, how do i get hold pete at sbits ??

Your hc is waaaaaaayy to high which means there is probably an awful lot of unburnt fuel. That could be injector related but i would also assume the O2 sensor to be the culprit.
