[DML] Re: Engine running half rich half lean.



It was the passenger bank running lean, so the problem would be on
driver's intake rail (the rails cross over before going into the
cylinder heads). Brake booster and HVAC canister is fed from the
passenger rail (cylinders 4-6).

Spark advance and full throttle enrichment are possibilities, as are U
pipe mating surfaces, a couple of pipe plugs, and of course the
throttle plate and housing.
