running rich i believe
after I bought my 03 GT, the owner told me that he had replaced the fuel pump with an aftermarket one in preparation for a supercharger. Thinking about that, and how im getting about 160 miles per tank driving good in the city, I think my car is running really rich. I asked a friend about it and he said i was probably losing power if it was rich, and to replace the fuel pump, or have it dialed down. I however, looking for more power, have decided to add more air to the mixture and hopefully make some gains. Any body have any ideas on what would even out the mixture a bit?
