    I have been MAF tuning, and for the most part... my LTFT's are -+1 .... I locking in at 0 in the interstate cruising.

    However, when I am in traffic and my water temp gets 200*+ ... I start seeing my LTFT's go up to -7 even when im idling.... I just don't know why.

    Rich should cause cooling.. Really rich conditions leads to more fuel making it down stream which evaporates causing cooling. Lean spikes is where a lot of heat is produced
