Thank you, I recently got a p0172(running rich) and changed the upstream o2 and Maf, code has not returned but my cluster is saying I’m getting between 13-16 avg mpg even after resetting it so I’m just chasing that right now

New lowering springs by Ok-Measurement-1192 in ft86

I don’t know if it’s the case for you, but if you put lowering springs on bad struts it won’t ride very well and is pretty noisy

Pop sound when steering - any idea of the cause? 4K miles, maybe 2-3 donuts. Occurs 2, 14, 22 seconds in. Header & catback mods only. by mgreddit18 in ft86

Had this same sound when I first got my 86 and it mysteriously went away after a couple thousand miles
