Whew, recall that I was thinking my car was running too rich.
Well, she went in and the tech told me he enjoys my visits but sometimes I’m looking for issues that simply don’t exist.
So I had to give them something and bought the jag cuff links.

I can’t wait for the nicer weather and give her that Italian tune up she deserves... maybe I’ll put on new rubber and test that too.

Cheers All!

Fuel trims will tell you how it's running.

Agreed, My assumption was driven strictly by my annoyance while cleaning the exhaust tips.
Car runs great, perhaps a little off on the fuel consumption but then again, I love the sound of the exhaust

The factory tune does run a little rich to protect the engine and extend the life of related components.
