How to upgrade from HEGO to UEGO (Accel VII)?
I have an Accel Gen 7 in the car i recently bought. I just figured out it has a HEGO sensor tapped into the left header. How do I go about upgrading to a UEGO wideband sensor? Not sure what all I will need to purchase?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Re: How to upgrade from HEGO to UEGO (Accel VII)?
I have the Accel Thruster but I think it sets up the same way. I used an Innovate Motorsports LC-1. You have to go into the LC-1 and set up the output to the voltage range the Gen 7 wants to see, then switch the Gen 7 option over to UEGO. Requires a 12 v supply to the LC-1 controller. Mine works great. LC-1 has two outputs so I also put an A/F readout on my dash. You can usually find good deals on ebay.

Do you run just one wideband on either the left or right side header?

Do you power your sensor with the car's 12V system or need a cleaner power supply?
