Hello Achim and everybody,

Because the exhaust gas check is good, that means that mixture is good.
Closing air intake or put larger nozzle won't cure. I guess that the
problem is due to the air temperature. When very cold, it may cause
'condensation' of the fuel drops present in the air => mixture becomes too
lean. Because the tuning allow the engine to breath more air, this may be
the reason of your problem.
