86 mustang problem
i just recently got a 1986 mustang gt 5.0 ho fuel injected and i am having idle problems and smells like its running rich
i changed the cap,rotor,plugs,plug wires,02 sensors,thermostat. the engine has cold air intake and a bbk 70 mm throttle body
no other mods done to it. the fuel pressure runs at 32 with vacuum connected and 40 without vacuum connected. there is no codes
coming up. does anybody have any ideas what could be causing this? any suggestions i could use and try to figure this out.
this is my first mustang and i would like to drive it any help would be greatly appreciated

RE: 86 mustang problem
pull the codes from the ECU, I think some autozones will do it for free, or buy yourself a decoder, maybe not neccesary now, but definatly down the road and my first car was an '86 5.0 also 
oh and I cannot strees this enough, please, please
