You can add more fuel in the map, which changes the af ratio, but without the new o2 sensors in, you have no way of setting a specific ratio. Best to run your canned map, or take it in somewhere to get tuned unless you really know what you're doing. It's not like some of the other tuners that have dials or ***** that you can play around with... If you google it, you may be able to find a few more maps to try.

If you got your map from Fuel Moto, I would download the one from Dynojet and try it too.
