Default Turbo d16y8 with vitaras sheared the cam key

Cam key broke and I put a new gear on it but now the car is running super rich at idle 11.5-12.0. Before it broke it would idle at 14.5-14.7. I pulled the ecu fuse could it have something to do with that? Like idle learn causing the rich condition thanks

The cam key is machined into the gear itself on the Y8... did you have a stock gear before and after ???

You replace the cam gear, but not the key right?

Do you even have an engine management system or is it "street tuned" with nothing??

I checked the alignment of the belt guess I need to pull the crank pulley and check the mark behind the timing cover
