System Too Rich

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 GMC Sonoma and 1994 Chevrolet S10 Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If air/fuel ratio is too rich, idle speed will be too low and scan tester counts will usually be greater than 80. The system may be obviously rich with Black smoke from tailpipe. Scan tester and/or voltmeter will read an oxygen sensor voltage signal fixed greater than 800 mv (.8 volt). Look for high fuel pressure or leaking/sticky injectors. Remove IAC and inspect bore for foreign material or evidence of IAC valve dragging bore. A silicone-contaminated oxygen sensor will produce lean air/fuel mixture. Oxygen sensor output would be fixed greater than 800 mv (.8 volt). This may also set Code 45.
