i just bought a new cat and O2 sensor to help my 93 egt pass aircare (rip off). dose it take any time to (break in) the new parts or should i just bring it in asap? so far i have added this adative that apperantly helps it pass, put chevron 94 in it (omg that was expensive lol) and removed the air filter. any other tricks you know of?

I was told to run the lowest octane for emmisions because you might not burn all the octane in higher octane gas and cause it to fail. -
i was told to run the higest cause it burns cleaner. i just rebuilt the whole motor so its running like a champ, im getting 13:1 comp, so i should be running race gas lol

94 octane is no where enough for a 13.1 engine .
How did you build that to achieve that comp ratio ?------------------------------------------------

i dont know how i did it, all i did that would affect the comp. is deck the head 20 thou. 13:1 is high for a street motor but not that high for racing, ive seen hondas with 16:1 that i thought was crazy high.

I dont think decking the head will net you at 13:1 more like 10.25:1---------------------------------------------------

Don't let it idle before the test. Run it up to 1000 1200 rpm for a min. before the test.

Old school trick....works every time.....add about a quart of alcohold per 4 gallons of gas. I go to the harware store and buy de-natured alcohol. 'Dry-GAs' also works.
No break in time required. May be a good idea to disconnect the battery and reset the ECU to re-bias the ECU.Joe Lutz

no need to disconnect power. Just do three WOT accells.
and the denatured alcohol is the same idea as using E85.Jim DeAngelis
