Idle I would like a lower number but not terrible for ltft but the huge fluctuations in short term don’t look so good (although not a vq expert but that doesn’t seem great to me). How many miles on this engine? No roughness or intermittent misfires at lower RPM/idle?


Just climbing up on 158,000 miles, the only roughness i encounter is when the stft pegs itself at +25% and then the engine stumbles and almost stalls and then that’s when the fuel trim numbers flip and the idle smooths out again, curiously the engine seems to act like it’s choking after this when i go to accelerate and does not really pick up power till after 5,000rpm.
