Very Lean, rough idle, what the hell
Very Lean, rough idle, what the hell
Hey guys, went to turn on the VIII today and it had an extra hard time starting. I just replaced the positive fusible link right beforehand. It is idling extremely poorly and is not drivable. It starts but then wants to die after a few seconds after the first few times starting it. AFR out of range (18.5:1 plus), vacuum is at 12-14 inHg when it is usually at 20, and it sounds like it has cams but it does not. (I've checked) I checked plugs, they are fine. Did a boost leak test up to 25 psi, all good.
Was thinking it could be the fuel pump? With the car off, I hit the fuel pump actuator in evoscan and I could hear it whine. So I dont think that's what it is.
I'm stumped guys. Any input would be great. Below is a video of it idling.
