Well it seems that a good way to make sure your car is using the proper amount of fuel is to add a Air/Fuel meter, especially since few of these cars have modern computers. So I am looking at what options are available.
It looks like one option is to buy a kit from pelican: http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/ksearc...r=PEL-SW85-2437 Option 2: Use an 80-83 911 o2 sensor and add an aftermarket gauge...(Which I guess is similiar). I would like to use this sensor, b/c there is a chance I may use an 81 CIS system later on. So... does anyone have any recomendations and/or suggestions? |

I really like the LM1. It has a data recorder that allows you to track the AFR and the correlating RPM. It will log up to 44 minutes if memory serves. Then you can download it to your PC to analyze it.
It is also possible to hook up a throttle position sensor to have awesome data, but you can also get good results by doing a voice recording of the session making notes of full throttle, part throttle, decel, etc. By playing it back when viewing the log it's easy to add notes to the log and identify areas that need adjustment. |
