Our cars run rich stock. How did you determine it's running too rich?

RX-7s run rich. And stinky.

If you think there could be a serious problem, get an air-fuel meter, and possibly a wideband O2 sensor.

Flooding is most likely leaky injectors. In which case, you may actually be overly rich.

The fix should be to get the injectors cleaned. How's your gas mileage? And your overall tune?
