How far off are they? I've noticed a diff. of up to 4 between sides on a lot of cars. GM's tuning is +/_ 4 so that's within "spec.". If it's more than that then I'd be looking again at vac. leaks or leaking/sticking/or plugged inj.
Just ask john25 about vac. leaks...... his 88 only has one side O2 sensor-but with the wide band we picked it up! Lt bank tuned for 128 blms, but then plugged in the wide band on the right side and got F/A ratios of about 19:1.
He just couldn't figure out the runner to plenum gaskets.....sorry John, just had to share that one! :lol:
