Trying to chase down yet another problem...getting really tired of this crap.
Engine runs nicely for about the first 15 minutes, keeps target A/F at idle right where I want it and runs nice and smooth. Then things just go haywire.
I can drive around at low throttle cruising and after a while the A/F will start to lean out. The proper running A/F of 14.0 has now somehow managed to jump to high 14's, low 15's. Same thing if I come to a rest at idle. Engine will be slightly surging up and down, A/F hovering in the high 14's/low15's. Adding fuel barely helps, but you can smell the unburned coming out.
Fast forward 10 minutes later when you are driving and those part throttle cruising numbers that had to be corrected earlier for being too lean have now decided to show running too rich, like in the 12's. Same with idle, come to a stop and now the A/F is in the high 12's.
This will keep going back and forth. What the heck is the problem, I've tried lots of things to correct this and nothing is working. Bad 02 perhaps?
