Default Running Rich. Possiblilities....

2.0l Ls/Vtec w/JG intake manifold and TB.
P30 or P72 ecu (have both)
Fuel system is bone stock.

Car is not burning up all the fuel, smells rich.
CEL for no knock sensor.

Could the CEL for no knock be causing a fuel issue?
also
If I were to purchase an aftermarket ignition system, like the ones that burn for an extra 20deg after TDC, burn up the remaining fuel?

Im open to options, any would be apreciated!
Thanks

your setup should be running lean as hell, not rich, but for the ks cel the computer is backing up timing.ground the ks sensor
for past experience, stick to oem ignition, msd's love to burn ignitors.plus honda ig. is plenty strong

Yea I know, I dont get why its not running lean.
So just by grounding out the ks it will stop the cel from comming on?

Also would advancing the dizzy a little change anything?
