Lots of maintanance. Still running funny.Log and pics. Pleas help

Ok so after going over just about everything im still experiencing a heavy bog under acceleration. It feels electrical. I mean it goes from feeling like 100hp to 300hp at the flip of a switch. It hardly ever runs good, but sometimes something happens and it will run good for a few seconds then go back to running like crap. 95% of the time it runs bad. I just fixed a bunch of boost leaks, and i was thinking that i may have some fouled plugs. I have some bpr7es's that will be going in tommorrow. I'm just looking for some suggestions. I have gone over all the ground wires, and electrical,fixed all boost leaks, and im just lost for ideas. I can post a log if it would help. I dont really have any good logs right now, but i'll put one up.
One other thing is when i go wot my wideband sits at 10.0. I just installed it today so im new with it. The car was acting like this before the wideband install

Well i just looked over my log again, and it looks like the wideband is buried at 10 all the time. I also wanted to add that my ecu has leaky caps. I dont know what that would do though. Thanks for any help.

11.6 is crazy rich at idle. You should be at like 14.7 at idle. There's something wrong with your tune if you're running that rich. How low does your wideband have the ability to read? I have a feeling that you're actually running much richer than 10.0 . But that your wideband will only go to 10.0 . Change your tune and lean it out alot.

 

[tbonitz301]

I believe that it only reads from 10 to 18:1. I kinda figured that i was running way richer than 10:1 since its pegged there all the time. Also i dont think it would be good to mess with it till i get my front o2 figured out. Its always something

I agree 11.6 at idle is crazy rich. I say change the front 02 sensor, there not that expensive and If your willing to wait a couple of days for shipping you can get one of ebay for $60.

Like everyone is saying, something is definately up with your WB and front O2. Are you sure that your WB is hooked into the rear O2 sensor wire? I have had a car do the same thing and it turned out the WB was wired into the front O2 wire.

 

[tbonitz301]

Yes it's wired right. I threw a cel for rear o2. I know somethings up with my front o2 and wideband that's why i made this thread

Well i just went for a ride, and starting pulling out a lot of fuel, and it is running so much better. Here's a log. Maybe someone could give me some pointers. I still have to lean it out a bit, but i figured i stirred up the neighbors enough

 

[1992awdlaser]

I would zero the fuel and airflow sliders till the o2 gets fixed. The way it is right now you are telling it to richen it up with the airflow sliders and lean it out with the fuel sliders. If you zero them out it will also make it run like it would stock with a bad o2 sensor (safe). It makes sense that it would pull harder when you take fuel away since a bad o2 sensor will make the car run rich.

 

[tbonitz301]

Did you notice that the o2 sensor was actually reading something. Not sure what that means

Yes, but it's still reading 1.10v during cruise which isn't right. Just get a new o2 sensor, throw it in, and see what happens. Hopefully it'll clear up that problem and a good bit of others you're experiencing. Then you get to have fun and start tuning all over again.
