Positive LTFT1 and 2

Dear ALL!
 
I have bought an OBD lead from Alex C. Peper, and I have scan my 24V Cosworth.
I have realized, that the LTFT1 and 2 show a positive fuel trim, both are nearly the same (approx. 12%).
I red the article from Vlad regarding the fuel pressure regulator. I have replaced that to a new one, but no change in the LTFT values.
DO anyone has a tip?
 
Thank you

I have an additional information. The TPS gives 21% at idle and the idle is also little bit high 800-900rpm. I think, it is not ok.  
Is it able to give me a positive LTFT?

hi there
 
have you disconnected the battery after fitting the regulator? you need to do this to reset the fueling (about 20mins).
 
re the tps. it should be nearer 16/17 %. try cleaning the throttle plate with carb cleaner.

Hello Scorpio_man!
 
No, I did not disconnect the battery after fitted the new regulator.  
Is it not enough to clear all DTC via the VE? Because, after a DTC clear, it looks like a full reset of the computer run Huh(I mean the continuouse and non cont. monitors included fuel monitor). Is it? or not?
 
The values of the LTFTs moving up and down depending from the rpm. At idle these are around 12%. These are not a constant values, but the same like before.
 
Anyway, Agree I will do a battery disconnection, and I will cleaning the whole throttle body as you suggested.
 
many thx for your answer

Andrew said clean the throttle PLATE. When you remove the trunking to the carb there should be a yellow warning sticker telling you NOT to clean the internal surfaces as they have a special coating.

Hello Gentlemen,
I have cleaned the throttle body, and I realized, the cord of the cruise control kept the throttle lottle bit open, that was the reason of the 21% of the TP.
I detached the cord of cruise control and tp is 17% at idle, better now.
But,
I done the computer reset for 20 minutes, but the LTFT1 show +6% and LTFT2 show -6% at idle. During a trip both are around 0.
I have a DTC for lack of switch of the bank1 sensor 1 and high voltage of bank 1 sensor 2. What do you mean, what is the problem with that side?
I can sense a little rocking of the idle, i have no idea. The twe front sensirs working ok lokks like.
ANy idea?

hi there
 
you have an issue with the both lambda sensors on bank 1.
 
check the wiring first on the left of the engine.  then it's a case of changing the front one first. the rear one only acts as a cat monitor, so you don't really need to change it.
 
have a read of http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/ho2smonitor.htm
