Hot and rich Posted by Ari [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: 02SENSOR, Ed 9k 87, Mon, 25 Jun 2001 05:08:16 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Sounds like an advertisement for the latest prime-time soap opera diva.
OK, to echo RS - what market are you in - US? UK? North of Mars? If you have a US market car, you have an O2 sensor. If you have a UK car, you probably don't in '87. This is an international board, so it's never safe to assume your car is the same as the guy answering your post.
Next, white plugs with black soot still doesn't necessarily mean rich all the time. To me, white plugs mean lean. But a lean-running engine can still burn incompletely, and that is the deposits on the rim of the plug. Those sooty deposits could be from months earlier when (if) the car was running better, or from the occasional full-throttle enrichment.
If you have a vacuum leak, you can run lean at idle and rich under open throttle, so plugs can give you mixed messages.
With your new plugs, let them run in a few days then check them out. That should tell more.
