    just file it under something you learned today. you might own a efi car one day, and after you put that 160 degree thermostat in it to cool it down, and then it want run , you'll know why.

    thats good, and it would have made it to rich. you can use a colder thermostat, but you need to reprogram you computer to burn the extra fuel.
