Mods, is this in the right area??
Been trying to chase down some high BLM's. I read a few old posts via the search button. The BLM's are at 150 at idle, int around 128-135. Sometime get a lean exhuast code 44. The exhuast smells WAY rich, like burning eyes rich. This is what I have done so far...
I have an exhuast leaket before the turbo. I read this can cause high BLMs on these engine, so I am gonna hit the autozone see if I can get a new gasket. I'm pretty sure the egr was bad. The turbo that came with the car was stoved, and blowing by alot of oil. The egr valve is loaded with it now. So I made a block off plate and BLM's still are high. I blocked off the vacuum block and it didn't make a difference.
I'll also be taking off the upper plenum and making new gaskets for it. Too bad I don't have one of those power plates, lol. It has a 1/2 spacer in there now.
I picked this car up and I am trying to get it running good, it never ran right since I got it. I haven't driven it, i am fixing all the problems.
Also, will not having both screens in the MAF make a difference? The previous owner yanked them both out. I may get another one used if i can find one for sale.
Thanks guys for any and all tips.
