My car is overfueling slightly, to the point where if tryed the car wil spit natural flames.
I run a std engine with a de-cat and an exhaust (no IND kits etc.)
I know the fuel pump hasnt been changed in the last 2 years at least, Is this somethig that should be changed to help ?
I notice the fuel econemy has litterally gone also..
X16XE Engine.

If its making flames it must be really rich. Could cause bore wash. Change lambda and CTS then do an oil change
