You may just have the terminals backward on your meter. Mine reads negative half the time. Also, you may not have a strong connection at the plug. When I posted this as an issue not to long ago that is what it turned out to be.

I did a few measurements to make sure my motor is running proberly before I proceed to install cams. I checked vacuum. It checked in at 15" hg. Is this OK. IIRC its not bad, but maybe a tad bit low. I also checked the fuel mixture. Here is where I had trouble. I checked it it was around 12ma. Which is a bit lean. No big deal. So I turn the screw clockwise. THe # gets higher. So I turn it the other way and the #s go down. Wtf? I got it down to hte factory 2.5 Ma and its consistant (not jumping all over the place or anything. Someone help me out here. Am I smoking lunch or is clockwise suppose to ritchen our cars and counter clockwise leans it out. On the same theory clockwise would give you a lower milli amps... so why is mine the opposite. Anyone? I was told the car had a garret chip too, Is there a way to verify this? Confused? Tony 91 GLI __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
