But you are probably,,,,,, leaning out the motor! Extra forced air,, ...Motor speeds up, because that forced extra air leaning the motor.Would probably cause high E.G.Ts Hope that leaf blower has a extra long long retractable cord LOL!

@curtspray The ECU keeps the mix at an optimal level for the given intake manifold pressure.

[dorondekel]

Good point, but I have fuel injection. Well, it works!

[woodyk34]

You can't have pressure in the carb venturi, it won't be able to pull up fuel by vaccum. Are you running fuel injection??? Super charging works between the carb and intake, not by pushing pressure into the carb.
