Running lean after profec B installation? :-(

I don't understand. At last I've installed the profec B spec II. I've used this configurations, also used for many other owners:

[/QUOTE]

I've finished today and all of it is well done. I've started my car after 6 days stopped, but the first thing I've noticed is that my A/F gauge was telling me that I'm running lean! ****, it's a cold start after several days!!! It's not a wide one sensor, but by the moment it has always shown very rich lecture at start, lean without throttle and very rich while full throttle. One important thing is that the profec B is still not tuned, but I've started my car with the profec OFF.

Another strange thing is that my boost gauge shows me -10 psi, while I've always have lectures at -20psi (it's a brand new engine) at idle.

What do you recommend me to do? Can it be dangerous running lean (if I'm really running lean) at idle?

Is it possible that it's an ECU problem due to the new solenoid? I'm running a pettit racing unlimited one...

Ok, problem solved. I've let the car idle for a while and after a couple of minutes the A/F gauge has started to go up, and in a few seconds my car was running happily rich. I think that the ECU has learned the new maps, hehehehe. Yep, now it's time to tune it!

Btw, actually I'm happy that this thread has finished as a monolog
