Need help !
Well, on Monday I installed a Air/Fuel Ratio from Autometer. I passed all the week understanding how it works and I noticed when running on the street when accelerating (WOT) the meter goes to 1green led (Rich) followed by 2 yellow led (stoich) so I guessed that was normal. Until today, I went to the 1/8 mile and after running several times I notice when accelerating (WOT) from 1000 RPM through 4k the meter goes to 1green led (Rich) followed by 2 yellow led (stoich) like in the street BUT when going 4k through 6500 RPM it goes aaaaaaallllllll the way down to lean until reaching 1 red led and then disappearing so, at higher RPMs the mixture becomes BAD!
What can I do?
Is that very bad?

I told my mechanic and he told me to try moving the screw that is on top of the throttle body, he told me that screw controls the amount of air going in so that I need to close it a little bit, because he opened a lot. Would that fix it?

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
