I'd help, but I can't understand anything in this thread so far.

Uhh, the solution is simple..you need to figure out what's causing it to run rich. :thumbsup: That, though, can sometimes get quite challenging.

Welcome to the prelude world. Oh give that thing a full tune up, you know plugs, plug wires, rotor, dizzy cap, fuel filter, some kind of injector cleaning like sea foum, and a oil change.

MAP sensor or 02 sensor is fouled or wiring problem. I have had that happen to me.

Could also be a coolent temp or engine temp if they go bad this can cause you computer to think that you vehical is always cold and it will greatly inrich ur stork mixture thus your problem.
