Hey guys I decided to make the change to E85 in my car and I have no idea what went wrong. I have a dyno jet wideband commander installed and have been running the car in open loop as I have not installed a bung for the wideband yet.
So I changed the tune to reflect 9.8:1 A/F and loaded it in. Fired the care up and let it warm up to about 180 where it normally runs. the wide band was reporting 16:1 A/F. I tried to change the air fuel ratio via VCM Scanner and no change what so ever while changing the number reflected on the narrow or wideband. I then tried changing the spark advance using VCM Scanner using the absolute, plus, and minus options, no change again to the commanded spark shown. However I was able to check and clear DTC codes (Cam position sensor code)
I drove the car down to the end of the street and back and just goosed it a little to see what it would do and the narrow bands went rich like they should and the wide band reported about 11:1 A/F.
I am using the Weiand LS intake and just replaced all the gaskets. I have the brake booster running off the back of the intake, the other port plugged. On the front of the intake I have one port plugged the other going to the emissions crap on the drivers side. I have a breather on both valve covers and the fresh air port on the tbody going to the second port on the passenger side valve cover.
Do you guys think maybe its a vacuum leak causing the lean condition at/off idle? Any ideas on what would cause the tool in VCM Scanner to not function like they did? Is there anything that jumps out as glaringly wrong with my tune?
I have attached my tune below and the log file. Sorry I forgot to stop logging so between frame 1800 and 2600 there is no data.
One more question, I'm running an xpipe on the car, should I install the wideband at the X, or on one side or the other, and if a specidfic side, is there a preference for tuning?
