do u have a wide band to check the fuel, also you need to do data logging and check knocking then adjust timing accordingly .

I use 91 with the 91 tune. And could it be picking up the noise my alternator is making? I think the main bearing on it is going out cause it used to kinda squeal, but now it just rattles and my charge light is on when i first start it.
