Ok...Here's my situation....My fuel trims are really crazy...My low is at 139.8 Mid 130.8 and High 115.8..I have all the the supporting mods!! I have my AFPR set around 45 Psi and was previously set at 39 psi..Basically stock..I am just trying out somethings..I know 45 psi is really high for a 1g..but hey..it's worth a shot for now...As for boost leaks...I just tested them...and i'm good! I have my AFC2 set at +/- Zero for now...As mentioned before...Trying to figure why my trims are being Crazy to me! Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated...Thanks...Dan
 
i would say your trims are alright unless you are knocking OR they just dont change. if they dont ever move EVEN when you are changing them u might have a bad 02 sensor. a good way to check if your o2 is bad is to log your o2s and if you are daily driving and they are all over the place. its a pretty good sign to tell you that your 02 sensor is bad. plus you will get really bad gas milage
 
Sounds like an option...My O2's will move every now and again at idle! It seems like i need to add fuel to make them move at idle! But when i'm driving they are moving. I had just replaced the o2 sensor like 5 months ago...dan
 
ok..after a day of trying to figure out my problem...I'm aiming at a bad ECU...I have to add 20% fuel on my SAFC-2 in order to get my o2's to read...If i don't add that amount...and give the car throtle 02's will read but my Fuel-trim 02 will be at 167.1 % which is the 100% max!!! I need some help here guys....Any input would be appreciated...Thanks...Dan
 
ok..her's the situation...I scored another ECU to try out in my car! Turns out..The same ####ing problem is happening! So now i'm back to thinking it's something wrong with the 02 sensor..What do you guys think!!...dan
