Two part question, am I correct that it is too lean and do I just adjust fuel pressure for this or fuel and timing? This is a 4 cylinder turbo ford combo stocker.
To rich... 11.2 parts of air to 1 part fuel. I have found 12.8 or so seems to make the best power (12.8 or 13.0 parts air to one part fuel). I hope this helps.

Oh, and to some extent it is better to be a little rich than lean...but you knew that.
