    A/F ratio gauge install

    does anyone know how to install a A/F ratio gauge? ive had one before but all it looked like was the gauge and the wire leading to the bong for the O2 sensor.

    if you do have one or know how to install it can you post pics?


    btw- its a electrical one i do believe.

    sell ... Buy a wideband. If not power, ground, white wire from o2.

            any source that powers 12v when the ignition is turned on but no power when the ignition is off....

                  I think it is 12v ignition. Does it work with the ignition off? Im pretty sure it doesn't but i could be wrong...

                            why even waist your time installing a gauge that doesnt tell you anything important? stock o2 sensors work on narrowband voltage so your only really going to see that the o2 is working and not what your airfuel ratio actually is.

                              well id rather have it now and installed instead of waiting til later on and then go thru all that crap.
