3.0 AFM adjustment

So I recently did this mod last night and put it 3 or 4 clicks lean and WHOA this truck has a whole new found life in it!

3vze 94 AT, i've never been able to chirp my tires let alone accelerate fast... now after the mod I can power brake and "roast" the tires, also I can chirp the tires when accelerating now!

I'm not sure yet on the gas mileage and how it will effect it (of course roasting the tires wont help) I'm light footed now that i've gotten the need for speed out of my system. So i'll report back.

However after doing this mod I did notice a stronger exhaust/fuel smell after driving it... any ideas?

I dont believe i did, I've read that if you turn it clockwise you lean it out, counter clock wise you go richer.

And after trial and error as far as running the truck and turning it, as i went clockwise it was basically stalling out and as I went counter clockwise the trucks idle raised.

So...which is it? 3 or 4 clicks?

I have mine set 3 clicks lean. It doesn't like to idle real smooth with 4 clicks. It'll run like that, but I really like how it runs on 3 clicks much better.

And, it's pretty much inevitable that you'll get better mpg...in comparison. Regardless of how you drive it.

its 3 clicks... I tore it open again just because I couldn't remember.

I still would like to do the ISR mod and put new plugs, wires, and I'm not the OG owner of the truck so i'm sure it could use a new o2 sensor.
