Default To much fuel??

Iam still dumping fuel like crazy, I just bought a b&m FPR and gauge and also a cai and adjusted the timing and ingnition timing all corectly. My car idles rough but its suppose to be at that idle speed so I left it. My car when its warmed up it sputters and vtec engages but when its cold like for the last few mornings it doesnt engage and car does not sputter. Anything to check out?

Fuel Pressure:38psi
Idle speed:700rpm
Ingniton timing set@16 degress. Should advanced it alittle bit more? The is only a stock b16 motor.

I looked at the spark plugs and they have normal wear on them plus I just replaced them with NGK's a few days ago. I really need some help on this. Iam stumped to even guess what it is? It doesnt start up easy in thecold. Fuel filter was just replaced a few days ago to.

hate to answer with a question,but how long does does it take to start ?,does it turn over after 10 seconds or 60 seconds?When cold...
have you adjusted the valves recently?if they are too tight it will idle like shit...also could be cam-timing,if it is off it will be hard to start!.....

cam timing is dead on where is suppose to be. It takes like 60 secs. Have not adjusted the valves. Want to adjust them for me?

i had the same problem with the missfiring in vtec, but didnt do it when the engine was cold, it was the cam timing, i thought it was right on, but u screwed with it some more and it fixed it

if the valve lash was off youd be hearing some noise from the valvetrain but that definitely can jack up your idle especially if theyre too tight

Cronic? There are other ways to tell if your runing way to rich like smell and unburnt fuel coming out of the exhaust. It eats fuel like a pig! Iam going to have the valves adjusted hopfully this weekend. Then go from there.
