i seafoamed the crap outa it when i first got it in april, is it time again????
it smells like its running rich too, when i first start it and it runs for a few it goes into a mode where it sounds like its going to die for a minute then back to normal, always does this like clock work when i first start it, i think its the ecu going into closed loop.my o2s might be bad but i have no cel light on
