Help with idle and gas mileage!
So just recently swapped a GSR into my eg coupe. My gas mileage is terrible, it's running super rich and even smokes black, the idle is really crappy as well it's not constant it tends to sort of jump and sputter, and it won't make it past 5k RPM's, there are no mods to it at all. I tried messing with the timing a little today and still did the same, anyone have insight?

Any CEL codes?
How old are the plugs, wires, cap, and rotor?
You need to check the ignition timing with a timing gun and the service connector jumped.
