I figured I'd post this in the newbie section since I feel like a newbie right now.. I've been slowly working out all the kinks on my car, but I'm just about out of ideas with this deal. I've narrowed it down to it only happening during closed loop - warm idle and part throttle acceleration/cruising.
New O2 sensor, known perfect MAF, fresh ECU from ECMTuning, new coolant temp sensor, ISC tests good, haven't been able to catch it acting up on a log yet. These are the ideas I'm down to - when I bought the car I had to replace the O2 housing and don't remember messing with gaskets (didn't know better at the time) so possible exhaust leak screwing the O2 sensor reading? Or, unrelated, possible fuel pressure solenoid acting up/not working properly, affecting fuel pressure?
When it acts up it smells incredibly rich so I'm fairly confident it's something between air being metered and the ECU's response to that, but the components themselves are known good so there must be something affecting their operation. Anybody help point me in the right direction, or suggestions of something I'm overlooking?
Mod list is up to date. Thanks!
