i good way to check to see if your running rich or lean would be to check out your plugs certain colors pertain to certain things. a dark sooty look would mean rich whereas a dry cracked looked would mean lean. it can help a lil i guess.

yeah checking plugs, but the only way if he is running rich to get to the root of the problem is bad o2's, timing, or too less of spark (timing again), or a bad fuel pressure regulator. Could be anyone of them.
