^^ That suggests that when the car is in Closed Loop, ie operating temperature and using signal from O2, it's seeing some odd values and trying to compensate.

Open Loop, or cold temps, use simulated data from the ECU map.

Dig a bit into what 1g cars use sensor-wise for OL and CL, that should help point you in a better direction for troubleshooting.
 

thank you ... im sure the data logger info i have will help sort this out
 

Update : issues all resolved. Completed a mini service ... changed 02 sensor, spark plugs with NGK 7bes gaped at 31 , ngk plugs, new coil pack , fuel filter, and injector o rings... now idles great with and without a/c. No more back fire issues etc pulls at 14psi to 6500 no problem thank you to all took the time to help me /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
