I think my car is running a bit rich , the exhaust has alot of soot or carbon or whatever and when i start it in the morning there is a really heavy smell of gasoline coming out of the exhaust that only goes away after about 20 minutes of driving ... how do it tune the engine to fix this ?

just get a denso first time fit sensor from an online densor retailer. they work as good as stock sensors (which are also denso) and just plug in. no mistakes.
