Ok guys, I need some help. Im not too familiar with Tubers yet.

I have a friends 99 X1 here and its Missing really bad.
It had one error code in it. Front 02 always rich.

Ignition seems good.
Has a new fuel pump.
Injectors seem fine.

Checked all connections and it still misses badly.

Any Ideas?

And does anyone have a service manual in .pdf?

Will the (always rich) code cause a misfire and just poor running though?

If the o2 sensor is kaput the cold start enrichment(about 150-160%) won't decrease to 100% as the motor warms up and will run like a carb'b bike with the choke 3/4 pulled.

One more thing,

Whats the Idle Spec. I know he turned it up so it would stay running.

Thanks guys.

"02 always rich"

If that's what the bike is telling you then there lies your problem. Contrary to popular belief, the DDFI ECU diagnostics are generally right on target.

Got the O2 swapped out. After about 20 miles she now runs like a champ. There is a bit of a dead spot at around 3800 RPM but I believe its due to the K&N and Vance pipe on the stock tune. So now I am in hunt for a tune.

the only other thing it could be is the rear head temp sensor. It could even be the ECM.

"K&N and Vance pipe on the stock tune."
You're running too lean.
If you like, drop me a PM and I can send you my maps tuned for V&H and Forcewinder.
You may still need to fine tune the maps to suit your specific motor and where you live.

The bike runs fine. So its not a head temp sensor. It needs a tune.

Kalali- PM Sent.
