a/f ratio guage?
a/f ratio guage?
I have ordered a a/f ratio guage and need some help.This will hopefuly be used for my burning excursions.I am aware that the a/f guage hooked up to the factory o2 sensor will not be very acurate.I was wondering if the v-tec 5 wire sensor will work with the a/f guage?It is a bar type readout.
Hey, are you aware of the Wide Band O2 from
www.diy-efi.org
I havent used it yet, Still waiting on the honda 02 sensor. It is suppose to be fairly accurate.

I figure the a/f guage will be better for me .I am not that good a soldering.Luckily I soldered a zif to my memcal with no problems.I think the guage will work with a vtec sensor.I will definetly be able to find 5-10 vtec sensors in the salvage yards.Missouri does have some great junk yards.I have a apillar guage on the way.That way I can have good visuals on my a/f ratio and fuel pressure.If it all works then I will be able to burn a chip alot better.I will have a g-tech to aid also.My car will be like the ****pit of a fighter jet,someday.

If your serious about EFI you might as well learn now how to solder. Just that simple. The traces on the Board are wider then necessary and spaced apart for blind old folks like me to be able to see with bifocals on.
No your AFR gueage needs a 0-1 output the WB uses 0-5.
What about the nordskog O2 sensor for the a/f guage.Would that be more acurate than the factory O2 sensor.I did solder my tpi harness in and can do it.I did download the w/b zip.The circut board diagram looked a little scary,but not too bad.But when I asked if the w/b parts was at radio shack there was no response.I guess I have two questions,grumpy.Can I get the parts for the w/b setup at radio shack?Could my a/f guage be acurate for tuning.My a/f guage has many bars that should show somewhat minor changes in a/f ratio.I guess more info on how a O2 sensor(&w/b) works would be nice.I like to know how things work,just getting it working is not good enough.

Look thru the last 4 years of the DIY-EFI archives and there is a ton of info about the particulars of how they work.
No idea what a Nordsko or what ever is.
