    Replaced the vac lines above the LIM, checked the PCV, cleaned the EGR, even left the NEG terminal off of the battery all day, same results. AFR jumps around from 15.3-16.1. Still struggling. During the radiator swap, I installed a new ground cable, replacing the older one grounding the NEG terminal to the chassis right behind the battery. Checked it again this morning, its on there tight and secure. I used a wire similiar to http://grote.com/images/goc/large/84-9256.jpg cut it in half and connected it to the battery with a new terminal. Could this ground wire be the culprit? It is slightly bigger than stock. Is the car safe to drive like this? I have been with no abnormal KR, seems to run fine as long as my foots on the pedal.

    Also, I have never used an aeroforce to individually check the sensors on the car to see if one is malfunctioning or not. Is there a way to do this, and what would it read if the sensor was bad?

    Thanks!
