Do you have a wideband?

Yes a LC1 but it do not read anymore, I put a new sensor in and it just reads lean. The turbo seals are blown, So there is excessive oil burning, im not sure if this causes the bad reading. What do you think

I do not know how many times this had to be covered before people will understand. You can not tune a car unless EVERYTHING, (not half or all but one) is working 100% correctly. Fix every issue with the car before you even hook a laptop to it. This mean all check engine lights, oil leaks, and any other mechanical issue that may be wrong with your car. My advice would be put stock injectors back in the car with stock computer and get it running correctly before you even attempt to tune. What you are trying to do is exactly the same as saying, \"Well the corn is done and the potatoes are finished, but the meat is not done correctly, lets eat anyways.\" Do you see the flaw in your logic? STOP NOW BEFORE YOU DAMAGE ANOTHER o2 SENSOR AND POSSIBLY YOUR MOTOR.

do you think the excessive oil burning could mess up the wideband reading?

im not an expert but shooting oil and burnt oil all over your o2 sensor ..yes it will destroy it.

Copy that! Even when you have an idea that something is wrong, search what it is before you start tuning! Last saturday I had the similar thing. I tried everything in the software trying to solve the problem why the car didnt make any real power. After further searching, the cam timing was a tooth off.....

it may not be as simple as this... but did you ever think that since your wide band is reading off the charts lean, and it wont idle unless you press the gas...that perhaps.....it needs more FUEL in those regions. It's an obvious question, but have you tried it? Also, was it always like this ? Or did it gradually get worse? Did you tune it? Did you play with the IACV duty cycle?

Yep. And afterwards it was quite simple why! It's not good trying to resolve issue's while there are still some! They could be related!

what kind of wideband do you have? AEM? Then your sensor is kind of dead....
