Unhappy

O bugger I actually had my knocklink move yesterday and today (I assume its the hot weather) My lambda is rich (as always on WOT). What (if anything) can I do to stop it? or will I simply have to turn down the boost? I'm only running a modest 1.1(ish) bar which is just shy of the fuel cut.

Define "move". If it was just the first couple of greens, its not likely to be too much to worry about.

Question

hmm had a thought... I havn't changed my plugs in a long while... could they cause it? or is it most likely to be high charge temps?
