I've replaced my o2 sensors, TPS, cleaned the air filter, new plugs, wires & cap and checked the timing.... and it still idles rich.

thought I should add, it's running rich even when warm.

Is there anything else I can check?

LOL!! my car is a 91 GT mostly stock high mileage motor 170k.
only has Cold Air, equal length BBK headders, Bassani catted X pipe.

The car has always ran rich since I got it.

I just want to make this motor last and run good until I start building my 331 stroker.
