    Checked the gap on the spark plugs, all 0.8.

    Fair comment! haha.

    I'll check the plugs tonight, tried to check the ECU, but they seem to have removed the LED that I used to use on my old CA s13, and I don't have access to a code reader for it.

    More often than not it is in that range, I'm not too sure, haven't got any way of telling, it does smell a tad rich, but its a pre-cat model so I just assume thats normal.

    Hi All,

    I have done a search and cannot find anything about this problem, probably very vague search terms clouded with other issues, but figure I'll just ask.
