B230f N/A with LH2.2

It smells and looks(black watery soot shoots out the tailpipe)like its running hella rich but tests say its running lean.

Oh and my "test" is I'm just using an LED light at the +battery terminal and the pink test wire and it doesn't blink or light up.

So I'm trying to adjust teh base idle and idle mixture after installing the new AMM.

But here's my question: When I ground the idle speed test wire (blue-white) the motor dies immediatley. I don't even get a chance to twist the idle air bypass screw.

Am I doing this wrong?
