after 10 miles or so of perfect driving- afrs go of the scale leanwards ???
right iv had a few faults with this engine as of late and iv been helped from this forum so I have one last one from you
I now hav the car idle at the proper mixture, set the tps sorted all vac pipes out but I have one last fault
I can drive the car for roughly 10 miles or so then ill open up the throttle a bit ( still running in so no boost just up to 0 psi slowly) and itl suddenly make a bumbling misfire tipe noise from the exhaust and the afrs will start going off the scales 14s 15s 16 17s and the car has very restrictd power until I let off
if I stop and then start the car im good to go for another 10 miles or so
rx7 fc vert
s5 turbo
just had rebuild
any help or things to check will be much appreciated just want to finish off running it in and start driving it

limp home mode on these- do they pull fuel to control lower speed to save engine - seems strange surely go richer to be safer

ok guys thanks very much I tested the thermo switch and it is within range so all good I also swapped a known good one in re tested and all good
currently swapping back to a known good fuel pump to confirm that is ok
will also try swapping the omp as I have a spare
code wise im unable to find the eml light so when you do the code read where does it read from
cheers for the help really appreciating it

Near the lead coil is a Green diagnostic plug w/3 wires. One is Black/White and the other two being Yellow based. Using a two light LED, as used for checking codes on an S4, you will do the same on your S5. Of the two wires for the LED one goes to the B/W wire and the other goes to one of the two Yellow wires (can't remember which one but you'll figure it out). And w/the Orange wire (again near the lead coil in it own plug) grounded to the negative battery terminal and w/key to on the LED's should blink any error codes.
Using the S4 method on an S5 w/o a CEL:

Explain what you mean by this more. I think the omp is where your problem is, but I am not an expert. With the S5 don't you have to change something electronically with the omp when converting to premix?
Hopefully someone else will chime in on this, I have an S4 with mechanical OMP so I am not entirely sure.

S4 is cake. Pull it out and block it off. S5 like I said you have to keep the plugs in but as for changing anything out I don't think so. I know the OMP receives signal from the wide range of the TPS on an S5 and that is where my problem is on my car, I believe. As for changing anything, I do hope someone else chimes in too.
