    Removing fuel tank. Quick question.

    I couldent take mine off, and it started to break the fuel line. Used a pipe cutter and used high pressure fuel hose. But...i tried to take it apart and its not hard, (if line wrenches were longer to give leverage)

    A/F ratio tuning

    Sorry I meant I have a safcII, just drove my car for the second time today, when it runs lean during idle it seems to almost wants to die is that normal? I see it go to 17.2 and fluctuate lower say 15.0 is this normal? But I mean when I give it gas/driving it will go back to 14.7 or lower.

    A/F ratio tuning

    well, its only lean idle, when im driving it always goes to 14.7 or lower, which is a good thing. i dont want it to run lean and blow something up, i thought running lean at idle was bad.
