Hey. Got car back from mechanic. Asked him if my motor is sounding alright. Coz it does sound different to how it did when I first put it in. He recons it's a lean furl mixture by the smell and sound. How do I shush the mixture or what could be the cause
 
Wish I had that ability. Would make tuning a piece of piss. :lol:

Also, try pulling the spark plugs out and checking the tips. Should be a grey colour. If they're white, he might be right.
 
can do...anything else i can do to tune it up...getting exhaust done tomorrow :) um i think sometimes one of lifters gets stuck on the left side coz it makes a ticking noise...only sometimes...then it tends to fix itself and start again
 
actually you can smell lean...... lean smells like sheit, rich smells like fuel, normal shouldnt smell like anything
 
intake leak, any leak between MAF and throttle, timing adjustment, bad fuel, oxy sensor is gone, FPR dying..... thats all i can think of atm...
