CIS-E 16v Problems/Glowing exhaust manifold



eh,
	My 16v car sucks. I thought I had tuned CIS-E right, the DPR was reading from 4.9-6.2 fluctuating, the timing was dead on at 6 degrees, so I figured I would complete it right and set the ISV duty cycle.... I think that was my mistake. The bentley states that the test lead of which you connect the positive lead of the multimeter to is the one with a blue/gray wire.... fuck, there is only a green wire, and a blue/brown wire with a yellow plastic guard, the other with a red plastic guard, respectively. I took the plunge, and attempted to tune my ISV duty cycle from that... I thought I had gotten it right, the meter read 23% stable, not fluctuating. I took it for a hell drive, and then drove it back popped the hood to look around.. I noticed the exhaust manifold glowing.. fuck, it half melted my poly rack bushing! Shut the car off, and park it. WTF did I do wrong?Was I not thinking, and did this in the wrong order? I remember the thread before of the glowing exhaust manifold, and im sure it's caused by excessive EGT, but as to the cause of the excessive EGT, im not able to recall... but I bet it has something to do with my wonderful CIS-E follies. Piece of shit in question is an 86 16v car. Any ideas? I think tomorrow after work, I may try and tune the bitch again. Peace,
