Re: Rich/Lean gauge

Called an air/fuel gauge, and you can get them from ANY parts vendor, autozone, schucks, checker, napa, or ebay. Oh yeah, but they are worthless.

ya its not worth a shit if you ask me!

heres an example for ya:
my autometer gauge would read four bars rich on a full throttle third gear run all the way to redline.now on the lap top it read lean at 5000 rpm to redline with the tmo program.
A GAUGE THAT READS LIKE THAT IS NOT FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Rich/Lean gauge

Just to let you know, the AF guage and the TMO logger are both using the same sensor to let you know if its "rich" or "lean." The sensor is the problem, not the guage! The guage is just a glorified volt meter, they are all quite accurate for what they are intended to do. Its the uselessness of the narrowband stock sensor that makes is useless. Just for reference, the almighty wideband O2 sensors (I couldnt live without one) are the same thing! The display is just a volt meter as well. But the range is 0-5 volts and about 10:1 to 20:1 range. COmpared to the stock narrowband sensors almost all cars use, 0 to 1 volt, 14.7:1 plus or minus practically nothing (thats why the ECU has to cycle fuel delivery in closed loop, shooting for a .5 volt average).

Re: Rich/Lean gauge

So that explains why when I go WOT it starts out rich for a second and then shoots to the lean side and max's out lean?
I still like the pretty lights bouncing back n forth!!!! lol

Re: Rich/Lean gauge

It should still stay on the rich side at WOT.
