Re: motor runing rich

well your egr is the only thing that could make ur car run rich.
from those 2 codes anyways.

Re: motor runing rich
Maybe it's running rich because of using the DE injectors (more fuel) and the K8 IM (less air than if you used a DE IM).
Just a thought. Also, how rich are you running? Check your cat.

Re: motor runing rich
It fits, just check my worklog to see how...
As far as running rich, does it smell rich or is it blowing black smoke. Running not cat at all is going to make it smell rich (no filtration).

Re: motor runing rich
If there's codes that's making the ECU unhappy, it'll go into a Safe mode to protect the motor. One of the ways is to run rich to minimise pinging/detonation. I could see the KS code cause this, the EGR would be an emmissions thing

Re: motor runing rich
Oops, lol, sorry. I guess I didn't post them up yet. I will soon though. Basically, you just have to be careful of the brake master cylinder when putting it in. It does clear it, but just barely. Also, you can find several DE vacuum diagrams if you were going to be routing them.ninja_man wrote:and mazdags can u post a pic of the motor in your car with the probe stright neck intak on it cuz i didnt see one in your work log

Re: motor runing rich
Try ebay, theyre all just rubber gaskets and theyre not that bad to replace so I would check there. I picked up a set for my mine for way less than that!
