No, at idle it should read lean. The actual mix is adjusted by varying the mixture adjust screw for max idle with the test connector installed. This only affects idle! When it is adjusted, you will probably end up with about 13:1 or so, but port air injected by the air pump via the Air Control Valve will will force a lean reading. Hope this helps.

well, what type of o2 sensor are you using, i just wondering im using the cheap *** o2 from daps that is messing up my reading, unless the car runs so lean that none of the leds light up at all? Do turbo cars have a senso that is different from na's? or just difference in good stuff and cheap ****?

i'm afraid not. You can control the idle mixture, but thats bout it. check your error codes of your cpu to see if there are any problems with your sensors. That should do it.
