Re: IML: 1978 NYB TOO RICH

["Stevan Miner" <miner@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Lean Burn computer really has nothing to do with your fuel mixture or 
settings. What is does is electronically advances your ignition timing via a 
transducer that is mounted on the right side of the carburetor. If your car 
is running rich fuel, it would have to be a carb issue.
