Narrow band sensors are typically only accurate from .400V (15.0:1 AFR) through .800V (14.2:1 AFR). So a numerically lower number equals a higher air to fuel ratio.

Lower the number, leaner it is. Once you get around the leak, the o2's should go to 0 or close to it.

Yeah, that's what I just said two hours ago! They'll go to 0, but that number isn't accurate to use for tuning!

Bust out the wideband!!

With the size of cam that he has IMO the wideband is useless at idle...

Decrease the Desired Airflow table, increased the idle areas on the MAF table, set the O2 switch points back to stock, increase the Startup Airflow Friction table, Decreased Startup Airflow Decay P/N and Gear, Increased Startup RPM Decay P/N and Gear, etc...

Corey, you are THE MAN!

Drove it all the way home, parked it for a second, started right up perfect.
