hello again i got around to running the engine running test and i got back 2 error codes
172 System always lean HO2S(1) The engine is always running lean (V8) 176 System always lean HO2S(2) The engine is always running lean (V8) Can be caused by a faulty sensor, cold sensor, or exhaust manifold leak could this possibly be a bad maf sensor? im unsure of what to look at first things ive changed myself are the coil, cap/rotor, leads/plugs, o2 sensors with vdo ones. would my extractors be causing these codes? :/ |

Could be caused by all of those things and more.
Try a known good MAF on there. Check your HEGO ground and also check your block ground to the battery negative. Could also be your fuel pump and/or filter. For lean running your ACT or ECT would be reading hot. Headers are unlikely to cause this problem except if they are leaky. |

No worries,
Disconnect your battery for awhile to clear KAM as well Damian. Be surprised if it's just the fuel filter but hopefully it is. |

hey guys i regapped my spark plugs from 1.4mm to 1.1mm and the missing has gone. im sure the msd coil would of coped with a 1.4mm gap as it is the standard gap for these engines. thanks for the help
