Range: (0-255 Counts)
The Long Term Fuel Trim (FT) is derived from the short term fuel trim value. The VCM uses the Long Term Fuel Trim for the long-term correction of the fuel delivery. A value of 128 counts indicates that the fuel delivery requires no compensation to maintain a 14.7:1 air to fuel ratio. A value below 128 counts means that the fuel system is too rich and the fuel delivery is being reduced, requiring decreased injector pulse width. A value above 128 counts indicates that a lean condition exists. The VCM compensates by adding fuel, requiring increased injector pulse width.
