running rich

[edwinelisia]

i think iam running rich, i can smell gas from the exhaust

is it related to AFM? anyone know how to adjust the AFM?
O2 sensor is still okay (less than 6 months old)

it wont be good for verry long if you keep running rich, could be an assortment of things, AFM not opening you need to hook your car up to a machine to adjust it so its cheaper to just buy a used one off ebay. also could be your fuel presure regulator, also check your spark plugs they could be coroded and its not igniting all the fuel in the cylinder causing the smell. or it could be your wiring, or your coils unless its got the whole distributer set up then check your cap and rotor.

oh yeah, new rotor, wire, old coil tho.
i just done my inspection 2 not a long time ago. and the plugs is like 6 months old.

i thot there is a screw on the afm to adjust it ? am i mistaken?

last time i play with my afm its movement is stil solid, move like a baby, but i dont know about the electrical component inside it, so i guess its not stuck

you can clean it with electrical cleaner, there is a spring inside that can be calibrated but you need a machine to hook up to the headers or exhaust to find the air fuel mixture to get it perfet. change your cap, if its old im assuming you mean cap cause coils were on the computerized ignitions i wasn't sure if you had that or not. pull each plug out and look at them, get some fine grit sand paper sand them clean and regap each one. and see how that works.

okie ill do that, thank you kowalski :D
