Well, on idle there is a vast smell of petrol! and i think, generaly the engine is running rich!
Lowered the idle speed and has seemed to have helped, anybody know what turning the top of the CO sensor with a screwdriver does?

Engine spec (from what I know)
65mm pully on an R1 charger and Jabba chip + induction kit with heat shield.
Might have other bits but dont know intirely!
How can i make it run a little leaner! (supercharger belts are quite loose too, but I should be tightening them soon, kinda hard to do it at the road side!)

hayesey

CO Pot essentially alters the mixture at idle but you need to have the car on a gas analyser to set it correctly.

if its very rich, theres a few things it could be

1. lambda probe
2. blue temperature sender
3. co pot
