Are the plugs fouled from fuel? Hard time starting due to too much fuel \(diference between the starts hot or cold)? Any mods...... fpr w/ fuel guage, stock plugs ngk and/or denso, are they cold stepped at all? Ive seen cts not throw codes that are faulty and give the cecu 30 degree temp readings causing it to compensate fuel, Gummed up iacv cause richness, take it off and clean that with some electrical cleaner just to do it.

there are a lot of reasons as to why it could run rich. Fuel pressure to high, bad plugs, bad coolant temp. sensor, bad map sensor, big injectors without tunning, bad computer. There are a lot of things it could be.

If your plugs are "fuel fouled" ie wet with gas then you have a vacuum leak.
