For the last week I have been trying to nail down the idle on my 370ci with 223/229 114+4 cam with futile results. Today I experimented with the commanded AFR control in the bi-directional scanner controls on a hunch that it was a little lean. My normal tune idle will surge between ~500-800rpm, 14.5-15.0 WB AFR, -0.02-0.02 lb/min STIT. When I turned on the control at 14.7 my wb jumped to 16 and really struggled on the idle. Gradually increasing the commanded afr consistently made the idle more stable. At a commanded 11.7 the WB showed 13.9 and the idle was rock solid. Even snapping the throttle open and closed it would fall perfectly back to the commanded 700rpm idle without any dipping or surging as it would with the normal tune. With the commanded 11.7 AFR all cells hit with the blips of throttle showed 13ish WB AFRs. Wideband is a PLX M300 w/LSU4.2 sensor permanently mounted in the truck and has been in there a couple years. Any one have any ideas or comments to the discrepancy?
edit.. forgot to say this is running OLSD. DFCO turned off.
