Rich mixture 200

posted by  someone claiming to be chargerucd on  Mon Dec 22 07:59 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Hello,

I have a couple of questions for you,

On my car after replacing a cpiple of things (injector gaskets, Flame trap, spark plugs, etc)

i have noticed that the exhaust smells like it's running rich, what can i check-adjust to get the car to not run as rich, and get the mixture right.

Also how do i check the oxigen sensor to see if its OK or not?

Another thing i noticed is that the car runs fine, when i put it in park (with the brake ON) it idles OK. BUT as soon as i let go of the bake, the idle starts to mess up like the RPM goes down too much and then it jumps back up then it goes down again and so-on for about a minute. anything to check there?

Any Help appreciated.
