    Default Ideal Target AFR @ Idle

    What's the ideal target AFR for idle on a car with a decent amount of overlap?

    "Usually" the pcm is going to try and maintain stoich, at startup you usually want it a little rich like a choke on a carb, since there is no load on the engine at idle 14-15 is ok. but depending how much overlap you have may be more or less.

    stoich is 14.7, you really want it a little richer especially in cold weather.
