this will give you wot afrs. however, if your trims aren't too out of whack when running closed loop then it is a safe assumption that you're ok open loop.
Very nice, thank you.

I did a vacuum leak test today. I did a very thorough check and the only place I would get a stumble at idle was at this port valve circled in red. Had my daughter run the engine up to 2k RPM and no stumble at that port valve.
