creeping injector scaling

hi guys,

my fuel trims keep running negative. They seem to have become increasingly worse.
for a long time they were happy with my injector scaling. Recently I have upped the scaling twice and the trims have now dropped below -12.5.

Is there an issue I need to correct?

running tephra 706, 660 injectors. p0170 (which is a result of the trims?)

thanks

Local gas went from more ethanol added to less?

I'm sure the gas has switched to summer blend. Not supposed to be a change in ethanol/10%.

Will keep bumping the injector scale up.// this would be a good diagnosis if a station had a overload of ethanol in their gas.- I would think. Though this migration of trims has been escalating for several tanks, different stations.

Not feeling a leak weakness, and it has affected the idle trims too, so its got to be something more than a air leak. I did bump the idle screw several weeks ago to help a big cam idle issue.

no new hardware in the last six- plus months.

misread your post...deleted my comment

O2 sensor, ethanol change, boost leak are my guesses.
