Can anyone take a quick look at my datalog and see if they could find any problems, my car hasnt been running good. Thanks

he probably started recording it after it was warmed upEct temperature begins at 138, after 11 1/2 minutes reads 142. What's up with that ? Does this car ever warm up?
I totally forgot to look at ECT :face:142 is not a normal water temperature when motor is fully warmed up, should be 180-195. Since you have a cai your air temperature (IAT) should be very close to the outside air temp, lowest IAT was 91. At 90 degrees motor should warm up to at least 180 in less than 5 min. Don't no if temp is real or not, but the ecu thinks it is and runs in warmup mode. Maybe that's why the idle speed is 1050. Check your coolant level, check water temp gauge is it low ?
Ill check, could removing the Thermal vaccum bypass valve be what causes it not to warm up right?142 is not a normal water temperature when motor is fully warmed up, should be 180-195.

It does these things once in a while and i dont own a laptop so its kinda hard to catch it on the datalog, is the lean safe enough?You need to be datalogging when those things happen, if you're not then I cant see whats wrong with it from a datalog where nothing happens.
It looks completely normal, other than being a bit on the lean side.
its not going to kill you now but its causing wear that isnt necessary... get a tuneIt does these things once in a while and i dont own a laptop so its kinda hard to catch it on the datalog, is the lean safe enough?
I know it has some thermal valves but, I never heard of a thermal vaccum bypass valve, can't find that name in the manual. It is probably in the same area as the ect sensor. Maybe you damaged the wires or the plug to the sensor. What else did you remove ? Sorry but got ask you this, did you remove the thermostat ? Don't worry about cal right now, the A/F in my datalog looks like yours until motor is warmed up. Can't calibrate until the motor is warmed up anyway. Fix the warmup problem first. Find out if the ECT temp is real or a sensor error. You could measure the water temp.Ill check, could removing the Thermal vaccum bypass valve be what causes it not to warm up right?
Dam cuz i heard a little lean is good for MPG and i dnt have the money to have someone tune it or know how to do it my self :/its not going to kill you now but its causing wear that isnt necessary... get a tune
Thats the only part ive removed, supposely it doesnt do much and the thermostat is still there. Well as for the temperature could the fan being on all the time be wats causing the temp to stay that low?(I got a EK with the Rsx base engine swaped into it and making the fan turn on depending on the temperature would cost a little more so they decided to just connect it directly to the switch)I know it has some thermal valves but, I never heard of a thermal vaccum bypass valve, can't find that name in the manual.

Turn the fan off and find out. The fan does cool it down pretty fast. Rethought your calibration, It is running very lean in some places. If you have to drive like this, post your cal and I'll make a temporaryThats the only part ive removed, supposely it doesnt do much and the thermostat is still there.
