i was redlining 2nd gear and stopped right at third, all of a sudden my a/f gauge points towards rich. and when i floor it or even give more than like 25% throttle, it bogs to hell. i am so confused. and also, i checked the plugs, and the 1 and 4 cyl, are hella black, while the other two are fine. what can be wrong? oh, and i was running rich the whole 5 miles home. not even once it went to lean out. no check engine light came on either. what the &*(% is up?

Since ur running nos. How often do u shot nos? Black plugs, are the cyl 1 and 4 piston seals bad? Sounds like oil to me.

i RARELY run it, like the whole year i owned it, i only filled it up 4 times, havent been using it lately.

check all your wiring to the applicable sensors....my map grounded out one time (skinned place on wire) and caused it to run RICH.....i got over 1 quart of GAS in my oil pan....burned your eyes at idle

well, my vafc says that my map is running ok, but my cel just came on to #45 and that is "system too lean or rich", the plugs in 2, and 3 are hella white

ur leaning out on cyl 2 and 3 if they are hella white. Try resting the ecu. Check all the wiring

i checked all wiring, and i have set the ecu, still leaning out on 2 and 3

something is wrong with ur fuel map. Check the vafc fuel map.

for my vafc, i have it on nothing, so everything is stock setting. no increase or decrease on my vafc
