A "general" afr question
Car runs and drives fine. But when I come to a stop te idle afr sticks at 12.8 -13.3 and if I just barely tap te gas it will jump around and land back up around 14.5-15.2.
My WOT afr are 11.7 tapering down to 11.34
And my cruise afr is 14.5-15.5 (this are the extremes if you watch it for a few min).
So it doesn't sound like I have a boost leak per say since the afr corrects itself after I tap the gas and doesn't mess up every time. But I would say a good 7/10 it does it.
Any thoughts on idle afr?

I just tap the throttle and it jumps around then settles where should be. But if I am driving and come to a stop the afr sticks low. Then after tapping gas, afr jumps, ten settle where it should be.
I'm pretty sure this is normal and no one has come up with a good explanation. Come up to a stop and idle afr sometimes goes to around 12.5 for a few seconds before going to normal 14.7

I have searched and searched and seems only other problem I've found is afr that stay low.
It's almost like its fighting to say in closed loop or I guess fighting to get back in. But it does it from every stop/ slow down , not just from a all out wot even from highway to on ramp stop.
Plugs shall be replaced tomorrow an we will see!
But I'm worried something wrong in my tune.

I wouldn't give up on your theory (assuming that I understand it). Coasting fuel-cut can cause grief when the volume of the exhaust is large. The O2 sensor continues to see pure air for a moment after the ECU decides to start injecting fuel again. A simple blip of the throttle moves the pure air past the sensor and the ECU starts getting an accurate reading again.
