RE: [DMCForum] Setting HC / CO with a Gas Analyzer?



But set the CO to what?  0%, 0.5%, or higher?

Dan's car will dial all the way down to 0% CO and 10 PPM HC... but that's
running way lean, isn't it?

Dave, you don't need to go that complex. Just set it with everything
functinoing, and you'll discover the lambd asystem fighting you within
the space of approximately 1/4 of a turn. This 1/4 of a turn basically
effects warm-up, when the lamnda system is in "cold" mode
