leaning out
this is a post Fi question, which means my turbo kit is in my room and I am installing it after I work out the kinks in my car. your turbo guys are more knowedgeable than the other people so this is why I am asking. ok I have a hatch with a b16a. its acting wierd, when I go into high rpms 7000 to 8000 it starts bogging and pinging and on the air/fuel ratio gauge its leaning out a few lights over. I am not sure what to do. please help.

Re: leaning out (nigel)
well for starters dont drive it often. check for vacuum leaks and get it tuned b4 its too late and stop driving it at all . Only when you need to,to get it tuned and drive slow and easy. Thats my best words of advise to u.

I dont think you understood the question. its still n/a at high rpms it leans out and starts detonating. its a stock motor, and I have a vafc. could an exposed wire on the o2 sensor cause this, or mabe a loose one because my air fuel ratio wire is kinda hack job.

Your not kidding about working out a few problems, solder those wires and seal them up properly. what ecu are you using? Have you done a tune up lately?
