Actually stochiometric 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be MittenHed on  Thu Aug 6 01:15 CST 2009 [RELATED]

Not to fault the suggested cause of the problem, but excess air will promote stochiometric combustion, the complete and sudden consumption of combustibles. This does occur in the presence of high excess O2, and causes high combustion temperatures, the very thing that causes overheating if the mixture is too lean.

Something to consider might be ignition timing at idle.
