hopefully nothing ;)

it is normal, that it runs rich(er) while warming up ;)

if you don't want it, you should change the behavior of the fuel compensation, but seriously: i don't recommend it

best regards Lukas

Thats normal.

Your car when it starts will read "correct" afrs of like 13 to 15.

Then it will richen up.
