Just got back from the track today tuning on a friends TTA. I put the FAST system on his car about 2 months ago and finally got a chance to take it to the track. Right away, the car was running very rich and I had to adjust the VE's to get it to stop popping under load. With that cured, he tried to make a couple of passes, but it was still too rich. A little more VE tuning and it finally made some clean passes. Looking at the data logs, the Actual AF would go to 9.19 everytime the car was at WOT. This occurred for 5 straight runs. I kept leaning it out a little at a time, but the AF was stuck at 9.19. Looking at the plugs and feeling the car told me that the settings were about right. I had another friend with a very similar car drive it one last time to feel the tranny (it is just starting to slip a little) and lo and behold, the Actual AF starts to read correctly (believable numbers like 11.9 to 12.4)
SO ..... was the O2 sensor just "fouled" and needed those 5 or 6 full pass runs to "clean" it out ???? We were using 110 octane race gas for all of the track testing.
The car still runs OK and the O2's seem to be reading correctly. I am just confused why it was reading pig rich then finally cleared out. Note: between my last run and my friends last run, there were no changes made to any of the map settings.
