    Running Rich

    I have been working on getting everything sorted out with my Spirit R/T. It has +20% injectors and a FWD Performance Stage 1 ECU. The ECU has been programed for the bigger injectors. I checked my fule pressure and it was 47psi with the vac. line, and 57 psi with out. I changed the FPR, but can't check the pressure. The guage is at my bothers house right now. I changed the MAP sensor because the computer had code 13 showing. I have also replaced the O2 sensor. I don't know what else to check. I have a OTC 2000 scanner, and pathfinder II cartrage. I don't have a book for it. I don't know what else to look at or test. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

    Checked my fule pressure with the new regulator. Shows the same thing. What should the pressures be? What could be causing me to run higher pressures?

    Another odd thing is I was playing with my scanner. When I look at the vac with the scanner it displays 10.3 at hot idle. My boost/vac guage shows 18 at the same time. When I look at boost vs. vac with the scanner I never see a boost reading.

    I will try or test anything I just need this running rich to go away. Anybody want to take a stab at it?

    Cindy at FWD Performance sent me a re-cal and it took care of the problem.
